Choose Life


More than three million unintended pregnancies occur every year in the United States.
Since 1973, there have been over 42,000,000 abortions in the United States - on average, that's 1,400,000 babies every year, 27,000 babies every week, 3,800 babies every day, 160 babies every hour, 3 babies every minute, 1 baby every 20 seconds.
Abortion is the #1 cause of death annually in the United States - more than heart disease and cancer deaths combined. More than stroke, lung disease, accidents, pneumonia, suicide, diabetes, kidney disease, and HIV combined. More than 88 times the number of homicides.
Each year, almost 1 million teenage women become pregnant
Nearly 4 in 10 teen pregnancies end in abortion
49% of pregnancies in America are unintended; half of those are terminated by abortion
24.5% of conceived children are aborted.
The majority of abortions are women between the ages of 20 and 24
80% of the women having abortions are single
Most abortions are performed in the first eights weeks of the pregnancy
More than half of all abortions are Caucasian women
This being Right To Life Sunday, lets remember all of God's precious "masterpieces", that have never gotten to show this world what God had planned for them.
