Give to Others
There are many ways Christians can give and make a difference in someone’s life, but giving basically comes down to providing another time and finances. Under the headings “Pray for Others” and “Serve Others,” people can see how they can give of their time. Below are several opportunities to give financially and make a difference in the lives of others.

Memorial to the Missing
Memorial to the Missing memorializes children who have been aborted in America since abortion became legal in 1973. Initially, the goal was set to collect 50 million pennies (or $500,000) from individuals and churches that would represent 50 million children. To God’s glory, this goal was reached in October of 2008! The $500,000 in donations will be used to establish an endowment to fund Mississippi pro-life ministries in order to help save the life of the unborn.
Even though the initial goal has been reached, the memorial will continue to receive donations to further much needed ministry to women struggling with pregnancy decisions. There will be no administrative costs coming out of the donated funds which makes every dollar you donate go toward investing in saving the life of an unborn child.
If you are led to make a donation to reach the life of a mother and her unborn child, you may send donations to:

Psalm 139 Project
Psalm 139 says that God knows the unborn child before they are even born! Although human wisdom can never come close to that of God’s, this project attempts to give the mother similar knowledge of her unborn child.
Psalm 139 Project places sonogram machines in pregnancy care centers to offer the mother a window to the womb that they might know their child. Statistics show that women are much less likely to abort their child if they have the opportunity to see their child using sonogram technology.
Your financial assistance can help place this expensive technology in pregnancy care centers across the U.S. and greatly increase the chances of saving an unborn life. Visit http://psalm139project.org/ Psalm 139 Project now and see how you can make a difference.
