Tree of Life

This coming Sunday is "Sanctity of Human Life Sunday".  Since 1983, Americans have observed Sanctity of Human Life Sunday as a day to celebrate the intrinsic value of all human life.  This important day also provides an opportunity for pregnancy centers to share about the work they do to bring life-affirming resources to their communities and to empower women and men to choose life for their unborn children.  To this end, this week we are featuring Tree of Life in Atascadero, California.  We ask that you pray for their prosperity and success.     

Tree of Life is a non-profit, 501(c)(3) agency, offering compassion, hope and practical assistance to women and families on the Central Coast.  We are funded entirely through donations from individuals and churches.




Our services include: 
  • pregnancy tests
  • ultrasounds
  • peer counseling
  • options information
  • community referrals
  • adoption referrals

We also provide practical items such as:
  • diapers
  • baby clothes
  • maternity clothes
  • cribs
  • strollers
  • high chairs
  • other baby items


All services are FREE of charge
and completely confidential!

  1. Was pondering just this morning how Sanctity of Human Life Sunday falls the Sunday after Martin Luther King, Jr. Day. The value of all human life was the theme and passion of his life and it's something we are still grappling with today--only this prejudice wears a different face.

    Here's was my post from last year's MLK, Jr. Day:

  5. As I've been known to say (over and over again, especially at election times), nothing trumps life! May you continue to reap the rewards of a ministry devoted to LIFE!
