We’ve received $48,398

in our 2020 Baby Bottle Campaign!!!


I received a phone call on a Sunday afternoon a few weeks ago from a man who was willing to match every dollar given from that day until the end of the Baby Bottle Campaign. He didn’t want to be recognized, he just wanted to do what God asked, without the fanfare.  This man quietly put his funds to work, not caught up in who got the credit.

The good news? We raised nearly three times what the Campaign brought in the previous year. He and his wife’s matching gift made this Campaign eight times greater than five years before.

At Life Care Pregnancy Center, we’re more interested in results than acknowledgement. We want to change the world, creating an environment and a culture where those facing the fear of an unexpected pregnancy don’t even think of ending that pregnancy. Our eyes are on that kind of future, not on accolades or notches in our belt.  Meanwhile, we go about our mission, rarely interested in whether anyone is watching . . .

Wait a minute. That’s not true. We do care if Someone is watching. But, just One.

And if we hear Him say, ‘Well done, my good and faithful servant. You have been faithful in handling this small amount, so now I will give you many more responsibilities. Let’s celebrate together!’, that’s good enough for us.

What we witnessed in this 2020 Baby Bottle Campaign --- in a year where churches for the most part weren’t even meeting to distribute a physical baby bottle – was a complete and total miracle.

I’m reminded of another Scripture where Jesus said, ‘apart from Me you can do nothing’.  

We may think we are so wonderful and able to do amazing things. We love to put on a show and then wait for the applause from our fellows.

And then we feel good about ourselves.

But the sobering truth is that unless what we are doing is rooted in Christ, it’s just not going to have any eternal meaning or value.

Sure, our good deeds will help others, bringing them some relief and even joy, but it’ll pass in the course of time.

One thing is super clear. Jesus says He is the vine, as in, the source.

Those connected to the vine are animated by the life-giving Spirit, and they are fruit-bearing by nature. Apart from the vine, there is no nutrition, no life, no fruit.

Life Care Pregnancy Center is all about LIFE – abundant life.  We embrace the vision of seeing women and men transformed through the gospel of Jesus Christ, and empowered to choose abundant life for their families.  

Through the donations of less than 100 families and organizations, we were able to just sit back and watch God work this miracle.  And watching miracles is what we do best at Life Care.  Every life is a miracle.

All Glory to God!
Suzanne
