 On Saturday, May 8, 10 A.M. to 12 P.M., Birthmothers will honor the sacrifice of birth moms who have placed their children for adoption. You and those you know who have been impacted by adoption (adoptees, adoptive parents, and birth parents) are invited to join us at The Falls Church, Falls Church, VA for our 11th annual Birth Mothers Day Brunch.
Guests will hear special tributes to women who have chosen to place their children in the loving arms of an adoptive family. "This is one day during the year that I set aside for myself," a birth mom told us. "I come to the brunch each year to remember my child."
Make sure those touched by adoption can experience this meaningful, life-affirming event. Call (703) 261-6370 or email

 This Mother’s Day, tell your mother you’re glad she chose life. Post a tribute to her on our website.
Your words could be the tipping point for a woman considering whether or not to choose life for her baby!
You can honor your mother further when you give a tax-deductible gift to Birthmothers in her name. We’ll send her a special copy of Prayers & Promises for Mothers devotional to thank her for her sacrifice.
Please encourage pregnant women you know to log onto our “Honor Your Mother” page on our website and read the tributes there. And be sure to post your tribute to your mother, birth mother, adoptive mother, or other special woman who has been like a mother to you! Here is a sampling of what's already been shared.
-
To my birth mom: Thank you for choosing life for me. I have been blessed with a wonderful, extended family and the gift of having children of my own.
-
Dear Mom: With love for your tireless committment as a mother of 4. Thank you for the gift of life.
-
Gram: Thank you for all that you have done for me in my life. After raising your own children you stepped up and loved me and cared for me as if I was your own. I thank God for your love and support. I love you and can't imagine my life without you!!Happy Mother’s Day!
 Birthmothers is reaching more women who face an unplanned pregnancy through Facebook!
Help us to connect to even more hurting women by joining our fan page. By joining, you'll help at least 3 ways:
1. We'll reach more women. When your Facebook friends see Birthmothers information on your Facebook page, then they'll be able to connect more pregnant women to us to be matched with a Friend.
2. We'll recruit more volunteers. When your friends see that you're a Birthmothers Friend, you'll help recruit more volunteers to serve hurting women and families. (You can help even more when you write a short testimony explaining what being a Friend means to you.)
3. We'll identify more Partnering Chuches. When your friends hear about Birthmothers, they'll want to learn how their church can start a Birthmothers ministry and serve women in their own communities.
If you're not yet on Facebook, just log onto www.facebook.com and open a free account. It takes just a couple of minutes. And you'll start connecting with others online who care about women, children, and families. You could even help save lives.
 Plan now to join Birthmothers, special guest Mike Williams -- known as "the funniest man in God's Kingdom" --and Christian artist John Schlitt for a beautiful evening that celebrates our one-on-one ministry to women who face an unplanned pregnancy.
Mark your calendar for Thursday, October 14 at the Sheraton Premiere Tysons Corner, Vienna, VA for An Evening To Remember.
You or your business can stand for life by becoming an event sponsor.
