🇺🇸 Happy Independence Day! 🎆

As you gather with friends and family, savor the feelings of summer, and watch fireworks light up the night sky, we invite you to pause and remember the courage, hope, and sacrifice at the heart of this day.

To the freedom fighters, history writers, and pioneers who paved the way for a brighter future, thank you. We are also deeply grateful to our veterans, active service members, and their families. Your sacrifice, strength, and dedication remind us what it truly means to live free.

May we never forget both the true cost and the priceless gift of our freedom.

Wishing you and your loved ones a safe, joyful, and meaningful Fourth of July! 🇺🇸

She just told you, “I’m pregnant.” Now what?
Those two words—“I’m pregnant”—can hit like a ton of bricks, especially if the pregnancy wasn’t planned. You might feel overwhelmed, confused, or even scared. That's normal.
Right now, she’s feeling it too—and your response matters. Take a breath. Be present. She needs to know she’s not alone.
Here’s how you can show up:
• Process your emotions—but don’t disappear.
• Listen more than you speak.
• Talk Openly and Honestly—Discuss your options together.
• Don’t rush decisions—Take the time you both need to process what’s happening.
You don’t have to face this alone.
At the Pregnancy Resource Center, we’re here to support you, too. Whether you’re considering parenting, adoption, or other options—we provide honest information and compassionate care every step of the way.
Reach out today. Let’s take the next step together.

We honor the many faces of fatherhood today—and the deep love, sacrifice, and strength behind each one.

To the dads and grandfathers who’ve been steady through life’s joys and storms—thank you.
To the mentors and father figures who’ve filled in the gaps with wisdom and presence, you've made a profound impact on our lives.
To birth fathers who chose adoption out of love, your sacrifice speaks volumes.
To adoptive dads, your love demonstrates that family is built with the heart.
To those longing to be fathers, your hope is powerful, and your story matters.
To those grieving today—whether from loss, absence, or estrangement–you are not forgotten, and we hold space for your sorrow and strength.

Fatherhood is not one story—it’s many. And every story is worth honoring and remembering.

There’s something sacred about pausing to remember those who’ve gone before us. Remembrance calls us home—back to what matters most. It rekindled a flame in the hearts of those who dared to dream of a brighter future and chose to fix their eyes on an eternal reward.

Today, we remember and honor the brave men and women who selflessly laid down their lives—for their families, for their friends, and for the joy and hope set before them. Because of their sacrifice, we can step into a better tomorrow.

We will not forget. Thank you. 🇺🇸

On this day, we pause to remember, honor, and celebrate the sacred journey of motherhood. Though motherhood is expressed in many forms—leading us in different directions—it is forever marked by love, sacrifice, strength, and grace. Mothers shape us in ways that words only begin to scratch the surface of describing—each story is a profound example of the beauty and resilience of the human spirit.

We honor the many beautiful forms of motherhood:
🌷 Those who have carried life within them and nurtured it with fierce devotion
🌷 Adoptive mothers who have opened their hearts and homes, proving that love knows no bounds
🌷 Birth mothers who made the courageous choice to entrust their child to another’s arms
🌷 Grandmothers whose steady presence becomes a sanctuary
🌷 Spiritual mothers, mother figures, and mentors who speak truth, offer guidance, and nurture the soul
🌷 Mothers who have walked through the heartbreaking loss of a child
🌷 Women who are waiting and dreaming of motherhood, daring to hold hope in tension

We also hold space today for those whose hearts carry a different kind of ache:
🌷 Those grieving the loss of a mother, missing her friendship and grounding presence
🌷 Those estranged from a mother, navigating the tender complexities of distance and unmet desires
🌷 Those who feel the absence of mothering in ways that are unseen but deeply felt

To every woman who has mothered in body, in spirit, in hope, or grief—you are seen. You are remembered. You are deeply loved.

Behind each ultrasound and pregnancy test appointment, behind every gentle word and quiet reassurance, there is a nurse. A woman who shows up with steady hands, time-forged resilience, deeply rooted strength, and a heart full of compassion.

Today, we pause to honor our nurses who serve so selflessly on the front lines. Thank you for loving fiercely, listening intently, and holding space for every person who walks through our doors.

We are deeply grateful for you.
