Nashville, Tenn., March 27, 2024 —The Psalm 139 Project, a pro-life ministry of the Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission of the Southern Baptist Convention, has donated an ultrasound machine to The Life Center in Big Spring, Texas, funded by the Southern Baptists of Texas Convention.
A dedication ceremony will be held April 2 from 3:00-4:00 p.m. CST at The Life Center located at 1801 S. Main Street, Big Spring, TX 79720. Representatives from the ERLC, and Crossroads Baptist Association plan to be in attendance.
“We are so grateful to be able to support ongoing, life-saving work of the Life Center,” said Miles Mullin, vice president of the ERLC. “In addition, any opportunity we have to partner with Baptist state conventions to help advance our mission to save lives and serve families is a reason to celebrate. We are grateful for the generosity of the Southern Baptists of Texas Convention in funding this ultrasound machine and pray it will be used in miraculous ways throughout the years to come.”
The Life Center is a nonprofit, faith-based alternative to abortion organizations advocating sexual wellness through three areas of outreach: teaching about sexual risks, helping through pregnancy, and healing through restoration. The Life Center has locations in Midland, Andrews, Big Spring, and Odessa, Texas. They uphold and promote the value of human life at every stage of existence and development. The location in Big Spring opened in 2016 to serve women experiencing unexpected pregnancies.
“We are so blessed to have a new updated ultrasound machine in our Big Spring location,” said Tracy Watson, director of The Life Center’s Big Spring location. “This ultrasound machine is a vital tool in helping our abortion-minded moms connect to the fact there is a baby growing inside their womb. This visual evidence has proven to be lifesaving.”
One hundred percent of financial contributions designated to the Psalm 139 Project go toward purchasing ultrasound machines and providing training for workers. No ERLC Cooperative Program resources are used for these machines. Tax-deductible gifts may be made online to The Psalm 139 Project, or via check to ERLC, 901 Commerce Street, Nashville, Tenn., 37203. Learn more at psalm139project.org.
