OUR PHILOSOPHY
We Believe…..
- In each woman’s innate ability to nourish life, either physically or spiritually.
- That fertility and childbirth are natural, healthy, biological processes and that knowledge of them empowers women.
- Abortion and contraception interrupt natural, healthy, biological processes.
- Women should not feel forced to choose between their children and their education and/or career.
- That our bodies were created beautifully and deserve respect, understanding, and care.
- In the inherent dignity of every human being beginning with natural conception and ending with natural death.
- Every life is unique and holds potential; every life deserves celebration regardless of the circumstances of conception, status, or health.
- In holistic, women-centered solutions to the many challenges women face in our society today.
- That life naturally begins at conception within women and requires a “yes” on the part of women to be realized. Therefore, women are at the heart of the Culture of Life.
