PRC Opens the 6th of 10 Planned

Centers in the St. Louis Area

By Jim Day

Pregnancy Resource Centers' new Well Woman Center at 4331 Lindell Blvd in the Central West End of St. Louis City is now open and providing completely free and confidential services. The serves include ultrasounds, counseling, maternity and baby care products, pregnancy testing, referrals and other services to women of all ages who are at different stages of pregnancy and pregnancy loss.

The newly opened Pregnancy Resource Center (PRC) building is just three blocks from St. Louis' infamous Planned Parenthood clinic. Prayerfully, PRC's new facility will have a great impact on Planned Parenthood's business and save thousands of babies from being aborted this year alone.

The new PRC building has 12,000 square feet in four levels. The first level is an expansive clinic that will deliver full services including ultrasounds. The mezzanine houses a chapel for prayer and the third floor is where the administrative offices are located. The lower level houses the reserve store that has many of the tangible items that new mothers need.

Purchasing the new building was made possible through contributors to the Now Is The Time Capital Campaign over the last two years. However, PRC is not finished raising funds for a matching grant through the Mabee Foundation, which ends April 30th of this year.

The PRC is asking folks to prayerfully consider helping their ministry with a tax-deductible donation. To make a donation online through their web site (which is totally secure) go to www.prcmo.net and at the bottom of the page click on the link that reads "Help Us…Help Others." That will take you to a page where you can contribute using your Master Card or VISA. If you would prefer to use a check, send it to Pregnancy Resource Centers, Mabee Foundation Matching Gift, 4331 Lindell Avenue, St. Louis, MO 63108. Any contribution made by April 30, 2003 will be doubled under the $300,000 Mabee Foundation Grant.
