November Prayer Focus

PLEASE PRAY   CPC humbly requests your prayers for:
NEW NURSE MANAGER   We are seeking to hire a Registered Nurse to serve in the role of nurse manager. Please pray for this nurse, as she will oversee daily operations of a medical clinic, including medical services, counseling clients and volunteer management. Pray for God to lead the right woman into our ministry – a woman who possesses a strong conviction to affirm life, a passion for working with women facing unplanned pregnancies, and evidence of a growing relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ.

SALVATION FOR OUR CLIENTS   Please continue to pray for the salvation of our clients. Several clients have been attending our Bridging the Gap Bible studies on a regular basis – they are asking questions and seeking hope. Pray God works in their hearts and opens them to receiving Jesus Christ as their Savior.

HEART TO SERVE   CPC’s ministry has a consistent and very real need for committed volunteers. Please pray for God to open the hearts, minds and schedules of His people to the opportunity to use the good gifts He has provided to serve and help others through CPC’s ministry.

PRAY FOR CPC’S EXPECTANT MOTHERS AND THEIR LITTLE ONES.   Their names* and due dates are listed below.

Letter from the President

Dear Friends,

Every time I step into CPC’s new medical clinic in Virginia Beach, I can hardly believe my eyes. It is a remarkable place. After so many years of planning, preparation and prayers, it is now a reality and already making an impact for LIFE in our community.

The very first woman we had the privilege of serving at the new clinic said, “I am so excited that I am the first client to be seen here and the first to have an ultrasound. With that being said, I feel it is meant for me to have my baby.”

This brave mom represents one of many who have been helped by the new clinic. Since The Keim Center of Virginia Beach opened in June, we have experienced a 22% increase in new patient cases compared to the same period last year.

There is no doubt that God has done something great with His provision of the new clinic and is doing something even greater in the lives touched by it.

I wish all friends of this ministry could see the new clinic. However, you would be even more encouraged if you experienced it in person.

We host tours often and we would love for you to see the clinic. Please contact us and let us know when you are available. Feel free to bring your friends, your care group, coffee buddies or whoever. We would love to show you this marvelous work God has done.

Hope to see you soon!
