MEN, CRISIS PREGNANCY, AND MINISTRY
This weekend, a PASS employee and I attended the “Fisher’s of Men” conference in New Lenox which was attended by approximately 200 men.
PASS provided a display booth and our purpose was to invite men to volunteer at PASS to be one-on-one mentors with the men who often come to PASS with their expecting girlfriends.
The reality of crisis pregnancy is that pregnant women are not the only ones in crisis. We must minister to the men who are their boyfriends who are also in crisis and can play a significant part in decision making, particularly for choices to abort, parent, or adopt. These men in crisis are also are important to the future wellbeing of the child.
Ministering to men in crisis pregnancy situations is another part of PASS that is focused on renewing minds and transforming and saving lives.
Please pray for us as PASS ministers to women and men in crisis pregnancy with the goal of transforming and saving innocent lives.
Blessings,

Thoughts for Monday, May 3, 2010
Dear Friends for LIFE:
The abortion issue is clearly not going away. New abortion laws in Arizona (in addition to the immigration laws) are making news. We at PASS continue saving lives regardless of what city, township, county, state and federal taxes and laws bring forward or what media hypes.
We minister in truth and love one to one. That means we continue to minister one heart at a time to save lives. PASS is in relationship with people to save lives, and we do it every day because of you--through your prayers and donations.
We are not a church so we do not pass a collection plate. We are not a business to our clients so we don’t charge them for our services. We are not a government so we don’t tax people. What we do is provide a great Saturday of friendship, fun, friends, live music, games, radio interviews, food, and conversation with people who believe in LIFE and support us with financial pledges and contributions.
Come join us for our annual "Hike for Life" fund-raising event this Saturday, May 8, 2010 from 8am to 2pm on Old Plank Trail/130 South Route 45 in Frankfort (on Plank Trail/event on the grounds of Peace Community Church). You won't want to miss it! For more details, visit us on the web at: www.passhelps.org
Blessings to you and your families,
