As an affiliated parish ministry of Orthodox Christians for Life, our mission is to cultivate Orthodox pro-life involvement in our parish and throughout Westmoreland County.  Our purpose is to support at-risk women, their children, and families, by collaborating with local organizations to strengthen their impact, and to create a culture of prayer, education, and acts of service around the supporting of life. 

We also support a local ministry, Life•Way Family & Pregnancy Support (www.lifewayfamilies.org) which shares the promise of hope by helping young women and men with life affirming choices. For 30 years it has offered the unconditional love of Jesus along with practical assistance. They help through pregnancy, after childbirth and through the parenting years.  Their Latrobe and Indiana locations have trained staff ready to help with a pregnancy test, pregnancy education, adoption options, or parenting skills. Their intake and individual sessions are offered in-person and remotely. Lessons are individualized and are always free of charge and confidential.
