Genesis Pregnancy Support staff are excited to invite you along to our first ever fundraising dinner!

PLEASE SEE YOUR INVITATION ATTACHED

As volunteers with this organisation that has been serving women and babies for 19 years, we are thrilled at the recent expansion of services and also future possibilities that are beginning to unfold.

The main objectives of the dinner are:
- to bring together all our like minded supporters to share company, conversation and commitment to the cause, over a lovely meal.
- to acknowledge and thank you for your ongoing support of our work in heart, prayer, effort and finances.
- to raise the final amount of funds needed to pay for the ultra sound machine and also to undergird the plans for future service development.

The use of the ultrasound machine in conjunction with our crisis pregnancy counselling service will give us the incredibly important opportunity to offer women the option of viewing their baby, live in the womb, before they make the final decision about the future of their pregnancies.

Results in the USA show a 60% - 80% turnaround of decision from abortion to keeping their babies!

ALL THE FACTS CAN MAKE ……  ALL THE DIFFERENCE!

Again, we couldn’t have made it this far without you, and we can’t go any further without you either. All together we make a great team, so please come along for a wonderful evening of food, entertainment and inspiring speakers and guests.

Bring along your friends too!

See you there!

The evening will feature guest speakers:
 
Trevor Grace who recently ran as an Independent in the South Australian election. He understands the harm that abortion does to Australian women, and is prepared to do something about it, despite the hostile opposition he and his family have received from some members of the public. Trevor and his wife, Robyn, have supported women to continue their pregnancies and also supported women post abortion, and have a wealth of knowledge and information regarding the needs of women and the devastating impact of abortion.

Kay Painter and Julie Thomas of the US-based 'Operation Outcry'. Operation Outcry is the ministry of The Justice Foundation working to end the pain of abortion by exposing the truth about its devastating impact on women, men and families. They believe that this can be accomplished through prayer and the testimonies of women and men who have suffered harm from abortion. They aim to restore justice and to protect women, men, and children from the destruction that abortion causes.

ALSO...
 
Life Network Australia will share about their first exciting year and plans for the rest of 2010.
