Pro-Life Ministry
The Emmanuel Community is a Pro-Life Community. We stand in defense for life, to defend the dignity and sanctity of human life from conception to death.
Why We Stand for Life
“The American College of Pediatricians concurs with the body of scientific evidence that corroborates that a unique human life starts when the sperm and egg bind to each other in a process of fusion of their respective membranes and a single hybrid cell called a zygote, or one-cell embryo, is created…”

Guiding Scriptures
Jeremiah 1:5
“Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you as a prophet to the nations.”
Psalm 139:13-16
“For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works; my soul knows it very well. My frame was not hidden from you, when I was being made in secret, intricately woven in the depths of the earth. Your eyes saw my unformed substance; in your book were written, every one of them, the days that were formed for me, when as yet there was none of them.”

Support
We provide educational resources and seminars that illuminate the scientific and spiritual reality of life, fostering a culture that cherishes every human being.
Our community gathers in constant intercession for the unborn, for mothers in crisis, and for the elderly, seeking God's protection over the most vulnerable.
We offer practical assistance and compassionate accompaniment to families and mothers, ensuring no one has to face the journey of life alone.
Mother Teresa
“That special power of loving that belongs to a woman is seen most clearly when she becomes a mother. Motherhood is the gift of God to women. How grateful we must be to God for this wonderful gift that brings such joy to the whole world, women and men alike! Yet we can destroy this gift of motherhood, especially by the evil of abortion, but also by thinking that other things like jobs or positions are more important than loving, than giving oneself to others. No job, no plans, no possessions, no idea of “freedom” can take the place of love. So anything that destroys God’s gift of motherhood destroys His most precious gift to women– the ability to love as a woman.”
