About First Choice

Vision Statement

To reach abortion-vulnerable members of our community in the name of Christ to make life their first choice.

Mission Statement 

We provide Christ-centered medical, parenting, and life-skill services to extend help, offer hope, and promote healing.

Core Values

Life-affirming

Every person is made in the image of God. Because life begins at conception, our ministry works to affirm life in the womb and empower women and men to value that life.

Family

God uses family to demonstrate His love, and we support decisions that build God-honoring families.

Education

Knowledge is power, and as we provide women and men with truth about fetal development and human sexuality, they are empowered to choose life and make healthy choices.

Compassion

Women and men facing unplanned pregnancies need to know and experience compassion, so we offer our services with no judgment, extending the kindness and love of Christ in each encounter.

Obedience

We are obedient to the revealed Word of God through Scripture, and to His continued guidance and direction for our ministry today.

Discipleship

Lives are transformed through the power of the Gospel. We foster authentic Christ-centered relationships so that each client, staff member, and ministry partner will grow as a disciple of Jesus Christ.

Excellence

We work as unto the Lord and strive for excellence in every interaction with First Choice through our environment, professionalism, words, and actions.
