Introduction thank you for taking the time to become familiar with the women's resource medical centers of southern nevada (wrmcsn). This organization originated in 1985 with the purpose of serving families in the community of southern nevada who are faced with a pregnancy that they did not plan. The mission remains the same today just as the statement proclaims, "women's resource medical centers of southern nevada exists to save the lives of unborn children by sharing the love of jesus christ through spiritual, physical, emotional, and educational support to our clients. " statistics from the center for disease control and the alan guttmacher institute indicate that 93% of all abortions occur because of social or economic reasons and that 50% of women who have had an abortion in the past are more likely to have another. Since 1985 we have personally met with some of these women and we have found that the majority of them would not choose abortion if they simply had someone to assist them in their circumstance. The wrmcsn acts as that support as we embrace these women and give them the education and resources that they need to be able to make a choice for life. All of the services that we offer are free of charge to our clients. As our mission statement proclaims, we are driven by divine love there is no worldly profit for this organization. The wrmcsn is a place where god's love is extended to those who are faced with the choice of death. Most of them do not know that his grace and mercy is abundantly poured out upon his creation to all those who will receive his gift of reconciliation. Many of our clients receive god's gift with joy and we are able to see the fruit of this ministry extend to both the lives of unborn babies being saved and the eternal life of the mother and father. Community impact according to time magazine, pregnancy centers are playing an important role in why abortion rates have lowered in recent years: "that would seem to be evidence that the quiet campaign for women's hearts and minds, conducted in thousands of crisis pregnancy centers around the country, on billboards, phone banks and websites, is having an effect. . . "(why have abortion rates fallen? " time, january 21, 2008. ) "today, it's still worthwhile to pass laws restricting abortion, but time and money spent on providing and promoting compassionate alternatives saves more lives. " (marvin olasky, "lessons from the past," world, january 17, 2009. ) las vegas has been listed as one of the top five "at-risk" abortion cities in our nation.
