What if you could save lives just by donating your spare change? By joining the Change for Life campaign to benefit Life Choices Center, you can. Fill a bottle with coins (bills & checks are also gladly accepted), and return it by March 11. Last year the campaign brought in $40,000 – all money that helps women & men in our community before, during & after an unplanned pregnancy. Last year our church raised $500. Let’s see if we can beat that this year! There are still bottles left in the box in the foyer for you to pick up.
