GSEP Friends

I had received a call from a 23 year old woman requesting an appointment. She had taken a pregnancy test that came back positive and was not sure whether she wanted to have the baby or not. She was eager to get an appointment, and who could blame her? She was holding back tears and I could hear the anxiety in her voice. I made an appointment for her for that same day, and she came in with a friend. After looking at her file, we found that not only had she known of our resources, but she had been to Guiding Star before - twice. Unfortunately, both of the prior pregnancies led to termination. Many women do not return for services if their decision is abortion. And of those that do, only do so because our services are FREE and at no cost to our clients because of DONORS LIKE YOU. This was the case for this woman. She came in and saw HER BABY with an ultrasound. She returned with her boyfriend and they got to see their baby together. Your tax-deductible donation goes towards the resources we provide these families at Guiding Star El Paso. It goes towards the ultrasound that allows our clients to see their babies, and it goes toward the staff that connects these women to resources in the El Paso area. This mom and dad CHOSE LIFE, because of the free services they received and because life-affirming resources like us exist.

If you would like to donate, please visit guidingstarelpaso.org/give and help us empower women, honor men and celebrate families!
