OUR VISION
TFLN Collaborative (Meets Monthly)
Our vision is to support a vibrant COLLABORATIVE of pro-woman and pro-family organizations and operate Star of the North Maternity Home, a residential home for pregnant women and their infants experiencing housing instability.
SON Maternity Home
The Star of the North Maternity Home’s vision is to move pregnant women experiencing housing instability to self-sufficiency while promoting healthy relationships, education, adoption and/or positive parenting.
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.
