You helped make 2019 one of our biggest years ever, both in terms of fundraising and in terms of impact.
You also helped us begin 2020 on solid footing, ready to face a year that is sure to be filled with challenges and opportunities. We are truly blessed to have your support.
Thank you again, and may God bless you and your family.
Sincerely,

Abby Johnson Defied Planned Parenthood. Are You Ready to Hear Her Story in Person at Our Annual Dinner?
Registration is now open for our biggest event of the year - our annual dinner with pro-life crusader Abby Johnson. Abby's work with And Then There Were None, a charity that helps abortion workers leave the industry, has been hugely successful. And her new initiative, Love Lines, gives financial support to women who choose LIFE.
But her story began in 2009, when she was a clinic director for Planned Parenthood and had to witness, for the first time, an ultrasound-guided abortion. With horror, she saw for the first time what abortion really is: the killing by dismemberment of a baby. She walked away and has been working to save lives ever since. Her book Unplanned was turned into one of last year's most surprising hit movies.
And she's coming to Minneapolis in May. Will you join us for our Annual Dinner with Abby Johnson? Click below to register now! We expect this event to fill up, so make sure to register as soon as you can.
Answering the Crisis of Abortion: A Seminar with John Ensor
Jan 25, 2020 • 9:30am - 12:30pm
Do you know how to make a persuasive and winsome case for life in a secular culture? If you wish to be better able to articulate your pro-life beliefs, Bethlehem Baptist Church together with Amnion Pregnancy Center invite you to join us at “Answering the Crisis of Abortion: A Seminar with John Ensor”.
John Ensor has taken his rich background, which includes establishing a network of pregnancy resource centers in the Boston and Miami areas as well as writing several pro-life books, and developed “the gospel of life” training designed to help you stand for life with courage, confidence and compassion right where you live.
This training has been shared with almost three million people on five continents over the past six years. Now you have the opportunity to receive this training locally. “Answering the Crisis of Abortion” will be held at Bethlehem Baptist Church South Campus, 20700 Kenrick Road, Lakeville, MN on Saturday, January 25, 9:30am – 12:30pm. There is no fee to attend and no reservations are required. Light refreshments will be served.

Unplanned: How One Woman Defied Planned Parenthood (Free Film Showings at Bethlehem Baptist Church)
All Abby Johnson ever wanted to do was help women. As one of the youngest Planned Parenthood clinic directors in the nation, she was involved in upwards of 22,000 abortions and counseled countless women about their reproductive choices. Her passion surrounding a woman’s right to choose even led her to become a spokesperson for Planned Parenthood, fighting to enact legislation for the cause she so deeply believed in.
Until the day she saw something that changed everything, leading Abby Johnson to become one of the most ardent pro-life speakers in America.
The Sanctity of Life Ministry of Bethlehem Baptist Church invites you to a showing of Unplanned, being shown at each of their three campuses, on the following dates and times:
Tuesday, January 28, 7pm, Downtown Campus, 720 13th Ave S, Minneapolis
Friday, January 31, 7pm, North Campus, 5151 Program Ave, Mounds View
Sunday, February 9, 6pm, South Campus, 20700 Kenrick Ave, Lakeville
Learn more about these FREE showings at unplannedfilm.com and bethlehem.church/unplanned.
