The Emmaus Institute Presents

Abortion and the Gospel

As our society grapples with the overturning of Roe v Wade by the United States Supreme Court, join us on Sunday, August 7th, for a night of education and equipping on the important issue of abortion. When does life truly begin? Is abortion sinful? What is the role of God's people in a post-Roe world? The Bible has answers to all of these questions 

Join us as we explore them!

Through it all, we hope to equip you for engaging in conversations of clarity and compassion as our culture discusses the issue of abortion. We will also offer some valuable resources to help you engage in the defense of life in our community. Registration is required - make your plans now to join us!
