Uniquely Pro-LifeEmpowering Women with Real Choice
Compassion, Education and Holistic Care
Our mission is to create a story of hope and empowerment for every woman facing an unplanned pregnancy.
Creating a Culture of Life
We’re here to tell a different story.
One that reaches the hearts of women facing unplanned pregnancies. And one that educates them on all their options.
We want women to know that they are not alone; we’re here for them.
When we empower women with compassion, education and holistic care, we not only empower them to choose a better life for themselves and their children, we create a culture that respects and values every life.
I have hope today, I have peace today. Had it not been for having Noah — I wouldn’t have any of it…none of it. He changed my whole world and I have so many people to be thankful for that.
-Amy

What We Stand For
We Believe in:
The Value of Life
Life begins at conception and God is the author of life. He created men and women in His image, and therefore, all human life deserves to be valued and protected.
The Reality of Abortion
Abortion ends a human life and the impacts on those affected by abortion are harmful, long-lasting and often unacknowledged.
Offering Educated Choices
Women often choose abortion as a reaction to personal crisis and lack of options. Pregnancy centers offer resources, education, and support to women and men to help them choose life.
Empowering Women
When we support women with love and compassion it has the power to not only transform her life, but also empower her to choose life for her child.
Transformative Action
In order to end abortion, we must inspire the culture to value life and respond to women in love. Changed actions are a result of changed hearts and minds.
We adhere to the statement of faith
that is expressed in the Nicene Creed.
We believe in one God,
the Father almighty,
maker of heaven and earth,
of all things visible and invisible.
We believe in one Lord Jesus Christ,
the Only Begotten Son of God,
born of the Father before all ages.
God from God, Light from Light,
true God from true God,
begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father;
through him all things were made.
For us men and for our salvation
he came down from heaven,
and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate of the Virgin Mary,
and became man.
For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate,
he suffered death and was buried,
and rose again on the third day
in accordance with the Scriptures.
He ascended into heaven
and is seated at the right hand of the Father.
He will come again in glory
to judge the living and the dead
and his kingdom will have no end.
We believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life,
who proceeds from the Father and the Son,
who with the Father and the Son is adored and glorified,
who has spoken through the prophets.
We believe in one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church.
We confess one Baptism for the forgiveness of sins
and we look forward to the resurrection of the dead
and the life of the world to come.
Amen.

Dr. Francis Smith
Born with Treacher Collins syndrome, a rare genetic disorder that affects the formation of the face during the first trimester of pregnancy, Dr. Francis’ face was so severely deformed emergency surgery was performed moments after his birth just so he could breathe. Soon thereafter, he was deemed deaf and disabled.
Decades earlier, his God-loving adopted parents––Bob and Betty Smith––were divinely brought together and placed exactly where they needed to be in order to take this child who battled for survival into their home.
Today, Dr. Francis Joel Smith is a Ph.D. medical researcher in craniofacial development and is a world-renowned speaker, musician, and advocate for those who suffer from craniofacial anomalies as he has.

Matt Hammitt was the lead singer and songwriter for the band Sanctus Real from 1996-2016. He has been the recipient of three Dove Awards, has been nominated for two Grammy Awards, and has been awarded for his chart-topping songs, performed by both Sanctus Real and other musical artists.
An Ohio native, Matt now lives in Nashville with his wife, Sarah, along with their four children. Passion for family is what led him to step away from Sanctus Real in 2016, to spend more time at home. Matt details this difficult transition in his new book titled “Lead Me: Finding Courage to Fight for Your Marriage, Children, and Faith.” Matt holds nothing back in this unfiltered story of his life, so far, carrying a message of fighting apathy in faith, marriage, and manhood.
Matt is now working part-time with Save the Storks as the Men’s Outreach Program Director and serves as a Save the Storks Ambassador!
