Serving Nations Here at Align
At the end of the book of Matthew, we find the beautiful directive from Jesus to His Church: “Therefore go and make disciples of all nations…” At Align, we see ourselves as an extension of the Church into the community… and we even get a taste of reaching the nations! Although we’re local here in Lancaster and Lebanon counties, we serve quite a diverse group of people in the name of Jesus! For example:
- We’re serving a couple from Ukraine. They initially thought we provided abortions, and were surprised to learn about the free life-affirming services we provide instead. They are taking our parenting classes and loving them.
- We’re serving a young Jewish couple. In addition to taking our prenatal classes, they are reading through the book of Isaiah with our volunteer, asking great questions and having fruitful spiritual discussions.
- Also, we just finished serving a young Muslim couple. They’ve been coming to our parenting classes for years and have taken all the courses we have to offer! During their time with us, they allowed us to pray for them in the name of Jesus, and share spiritual applications with them from each lesson. We trust God to bring to completion the good work He has begun in them.
We love the glimpse we get of Jesus carrying out His great commission through us and other Christian pregnancy centers like ours! For God so loved the world that He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal LIFE!
