Choices Medical Clinic
  Building a Culture of Life

Ultra Sound Initiative

  • Iowa is one of the first two states where Supreme and State Councils partnered on the purchase of an ultrasound machine (for Informed Choice Iowa City) to help pregnant women be fully informed that it is a real person in their womb. Statistics are that 87% of all women who see their baby in a 4-D ultrasound image choose to keep their child. This effort is a vitally important component in our pro-life efforts.

Today I have given you the choice between life and death, between blessings and curses. Now I call on heaven and earth to witness the choice you make. Oh, that you would choose life, so that you and your descendants might live!” Deuteronomy 30:19

More on Birthright

Birthright

Birthright began in Toronto, in 1968, when Louise Summerhill determined to help women through an unplanned pregnancy. The Toronto center quickly grew into Birthright International, the world's first international crisis pregnancy service, which now has about 500 chapters worldwide, including 70 in Canada, 450 in the United States, and others in South Africa, Ghana, Cameroon, Nigeria and Hong Kong.

KC Cans for Life

If I told you that your council could raise over $5,000 a year for the Pro-Life cause in just four hours a month, wouldn’t you be interested? How about if I told you that I had such a project already set-up and ready to go with minimal preparation? Now what if this project was also a great social event for your Knights that can involve the whole family?

Spiritual Adoption

Jesus, Mary and Joseph I love you very much. I beg you to spare the life of the unborn baby that I have spiritually adopted who is in danger of abortion.

Purpose of Program

  • To promote prayer for babies in danger of abortion and parents contemplating abortion.
  • To educate parishioners about the development of the unborn child over the nine-month period before birth.
  • To educate parishioners about what the pro-life movement is doing to help pregnant women and their children before and after birth.
  • January or October are good times to begin this program, but you could start it at any time during the year.
