Heartbeat International is looking for moms and babies who have been served and saved by your work to meet with key members of Congress. You are asked to join with us as we give women grateful for your services an opportunity to let their representatives know that: “Pregnancy Centers are good for America.”

Heartbeat is scheduling meetings with Congressional leaders to introduce pregnancy center staff, clients, and the babies. This will be a wonderful opportunity to let Congressional leaders see and hear for themselves the great work of pregnancy resource centers through the client’s own words. We have had babies saved by centers as young as six weeks and as old as 18 on-site. We realize some centers have been providing services for four decades, so it would be awesome to find “babies” in their thirties to participate.

We’d love to hear from you. We want to have your center represented!

Just as God calls us to relationship with each other, it is also vital that we have relationships our elected officials. We each have government representatives who need to hear about the life-saving work of the pregnancy centers.

“I am so grateful for the opportunity we had to participate in Babies Go to Congress and would welcome the opportunity to go again. My client, Stephanie, her daughter and I were able to meet with our congressional leaders and enlighten them on how we serve a vital need in the Twin Cities, and that pregnancy centers are good for America!” -Peggy Benicke, Robbinsdale Women’s Center

“Sometimes the passion for the work gets lost in the everyday battles we face but crossing the streets of Washington D.C., I was reminded of the verse: ‘How precious are the feet of them who bring good news.’ We were bringing great news to our Nation’s Capitol. Pregnancy centers are good for America. Pregnancy centers are committed. Pregnancy centers save lives. Pregnancy centers are here to stay. I was blessed to be able to tell it and even more blessed to live it.” -Rita Reyes, Choices of the Heart

“Thank you for the invitation to participate. I found the day educational as well as inspiring and productive. I look forward to participating in more Heartbeat-affiliated events and meeting more of the wonderful people in the Heartbeat network!” -Kristen Sullivan, Northwest Pregnancy Center
