Church Outreach

Church Outreach Activities

Below is a listing of simple, life-focused suggestions which Right to Life of Michigan has compiled in response to requests from churches. Actively promoting a culture of life throughout the year can be inspiring and enjoyable!

  • Provide an opportunity for a representative from the local Right to Life of Michigan Affiliate to give an update about their work in the community and share how volunteers can become involved in embracing life.

  • Encourage youth to participate in local Right to Life of Michigan oratory contests and acknowledge teens who have participated. One idea is to recognize participants in a special way and possibly allowing them to give their speeches in front of the congregation.

  • Pray a prayer of blessing for a family who is expecting a child. This shows that every child is welcomed by your faith community before he/she is born enforcing the humanity of the unborn and recognizing a precious and irreplaceable child.

  • Increase your congregation's awareness of the needs of local crisis pregnancy centers by having a diaper drive.  A local Right to Life of Michigan Affiliate can help organize an awareness campaign. Baby items help to assist local families faced with an untimely pregnancy.

  • Send a representative from your faith community to a local Right to Life of Michigan Affiliate meeting in your area. This will heighten awareness of local happenings and help keep your community engaged and informed with local activities.

  • Include Right to Life of Michigan's monthly church bulletin suggestions in your bulletin.  They provide news and educational information to help others stay up-to-date on life issues.

  • Have an adult Sunday school class focus on life issues.  Right to Life of Michigan's Faith Resources web site has sample study guides which can be used.

  • Have copies of prolife publications like the Right to Life of Michigan News at your information desk. Contact the Right to Life of Michigan State Central Office to place a bulk order.

  • Create a cross/flag display to memorialize children lost in your community to abortion. The local Right to Life of Michigan Affiliate can help plan the display.

  • Provide a link on your web site to Right to Life of Michigan's web site, www.rtl.org, and if available your local Affiliate web site.
