Over the last seven years it has been our privilege at Glory of Christ to serve Abba Pregnancy Resource Center. Two of our members currently serve on their Board of Directors (Pastor Charlie is the Chairperson), and several others play significant roles as well. So please read the following information, and pray about how the Lord might have you engage in, or otherwise support, the ministry of Abba PRC. And more importantly, may the Lord empower us to win the cultural victory in the fight for life! 

From Abba's Website (www.abbaprc.org)
All services at Abba Pregnancy Resource Center are free and confidential. We offer the following to help you make an informed decision about your pregnancy.

1. Pregnancy Testing: A free, self-administered test in the Center. Tests can provide instant results.

2. Consultation: Trained counselors offer a safe nonjudgmental environment to talk and ask questions. Be informed about all your options and make a well-informed decision.

3. Ultrasound & STD Referrals: We are not a medical clinic and do not perform medical services.



- Referrals: STD testing, ultrasounds, professional counseling, licensed adoption agencies, post abortion healing & counseling, social services, food shelf and other support services in the community


- Resources on: STDs, HIV, pregnancy-all stages, abortion risks and complications, adoption, healthy relationships, marriage, living together, abstinence, parenting up to 2 years and other topics.


- Supplies: free to our clients; maternity clothes, breast pumps, formula, baby food and other nursing and feeding supplies when in stock.


- Program: We offer support through our learning program for pregnant clients and through the child’s second birthday. By studying educational materials on topics such as healthy pregnancy, parenting, healthy relationships, life skills, finances and other topics, our clients earn “mommy money.” With that mommy money, items can be purchased such as; diapers, wipes, clothing, strollers, highchairs, etc.

The Secret of all Failure is our Failure in Secret Prayer

By
“We may be assured of this—the secret of all failure is our failure in secret prayer” (12). So writes the anonymous author of the classic little book on prayer entitled, The Kneeling Christian (Zondervan Publishing House, Grand Rapids: 1971). He means that the reason we so often fall into sin or live in discouragement or fail to bear fruit is because we do not cling to God in Christ above all things. We do not diligently seek him or lean on him or plead with him or draw on his strength. We give ourselves to busyness over communion with God and in this way we seek to accomplish in our flesh what can only be accomplished in the power of the Spirit.  Giving first place to what our dear author calls “secret prayer” is indeed a key to the Spirit-filled life but let’s be clear: prayer is not magic, rather, it’s a relationship. It’s not as if we simply have to file requests with God, being careful to use just the right words so that we can get him to respond as we wish. God is not a vending m

Deacons - How They Serve and Strengthen the Church (Part 1)

By
  One of the next important priorities for GCF is to establish deacons in the life of the church. On March 14, 2021 we were able to establish an elder team. Currently, we have a team of four elders overseeing the congregation of GCF.  However, there is more work to be done. I have come to see that establishing an elder team was the bare minimum that needed to happen for GCF to survive. I believe GCF now needs to turn our attention to raising up a team of qualified and willing deacons to serve the congregation so that it will not only survive but thrive.   I would like to begin a series of blogs on deacons to help us understand who they are and what they do in the life of the church.  In this blog let me provide three reasons why I think deacons should be near our top priority.  Number 1: It is Biblical. Paul instructs Timothy to install elders who will help him pastor the church. For whatever reason, it seems the churches in our circles treat the installment of elders as non-negotiable

Does the Doctrine Divide? by Patience Griswold

By Anonymous
“Oh, I try not to talk about doctrine. It’s so divisive.” This is a sentiment that I’ve heard expressed, as well as implied, on many occasions, and one that raises the question, does doctrine divide? In answering this question, we must keep in mind a very important truth and that is that everyone holds to some sort of doctrine . “Doctrine” is defined as “a belief or set of beliefs held and taught by a church, political party, or other group.” Regardless of whether or not someone publicly holds to a statement of beliefs from a particular church, every Christian, by definition, holds to a particular set of beliefs. As Carl Trueman observes in his book The Creedal Imperative ,       [W]hile Christianity cannot be reduced to doctrine, to mere teaching, it cannot be meaningfully separated from it, either. Even the most basic claims, such as “Jesus is Lord,” carry clear doctrinal content that needs to be explicated in a world where, as we have noted before, every heretic has his text and n
