Pro-Life
Because
we recognize that life is a precious gift from God, OBC supports various
pro-life efforts. We cherish our involvement with the
Care Net Pregnancy Resource Centers in Woodbridge,
and have taken groups to march in the annual
March for Life in D.C. At the same time,
we seek to minister forgiveness and healing through compassionate
counseling to those who are experiencing the spiritual and emotional
pain of abortion.
