Facing an Unplanned Pregnancy
Our adoption services help you with Abortion Alternatives
Adoption is another alternative to
abortion. You can make the choice to give the greatest gift all to your
child - life!
Through adoption you are also creating a family.
Most families adopting through Christian Services have struggled with
infertility. They are unable to have children for some reason. The only
way they are able to have a family is through adoption. You would be
fulfilling their dream and giving life to your child at the same time.
Our staff can assist you in looking at your
options and deciding if either adoption or parenting would be a good
choice for you and your unborn baby.

Church Groups Turn to Sonogram to Turn Women From Abortions
By NEELA BANERJEE
BOWIE, Md., Jan. 26 - Sixteen months ago, Andrea Brown, 24 years old and unmarried, was desperate for an abortion, fearing the disappointment of her parents and the humiliation she might face.
While frantically searching the telephone book one day, she came across the Bowie Crofton Pregnancy Center and Medical Clinic, a church-financed organization that provides counseling and education about sexual abstinence. The receptionist told Ms. Brown that the clinic did not perform abortions or make referrals but that she could come in for an ultrasound to make sure her six-and-a-half week pregnancy was viable. When she did, everything changed.
"When I had the sonogram and heard the heartbeat - and for me a heartbeat symbolizes life - after that there was no way I could do it," Ms. Brown said recently as she revisited the clinic and watched her daughter, Elora, now 9 months old, play at her feet.
