EMC Saving Babies and Forging Friendships


One of the great things about EMC is our clients, and the relationships that we are able to build with them. Once she has changed her mind and chosen LIFE for her baby, she is so grateful to us for having helped her! So much so, that it is not at all uncommon for previous clients to stop by one of the centers just say "Hi"! This helps us to find out how she's doing and to continue with counseling and resources, be it material or emotional support if need be. The Mom's are always so proud to bring their little bundles of joy to meet us! Allowing us the privilege of seeing the fruits of our labor, in the form of beautiful, little, Miracle Babies!

About six months ago I met a young lady who had been a previous client of ours. She had spoken with our Center Director Liz and decided to keep her baby. She was just by for a visit to see Liz and introduce her to the baby. As we sat in the lobby that day we formed a friendship. I became the honorary 'Tia' or Aunti to her beautiful daughter Vivianna with the big brown eyes. What an honor! It's occurrences like these that make me that much more grateful to be doing this work!
