Next Monday and Tuesday, Dec. 8-9, the Catholic Club is sponsoring The Pregnancy Resource Center of North County, as they will bring an RV to campus in Library Plaza to offer pregnant women the opportunity to view their infant in the womb at no cost.

The mission statement for the Pregnancy Resource Center is that they are "an integral part of the Body of Christ, which meets the needs of the community in a way that delights the Father" and serve "as experts in the areas of sexual health, unplanned pregnancies, abortion recovery, and offer hope through the love of Jesus Christ."

The Pregnancy Resource Center's vision for North County San Diego is "a community where people are so readily empowered that abortion is no longer in demand. Men and women who have been traumatized by abortion are set free. Our youth understand and accept the benefits of abstinence. Lives are transformed through the Gospel of Jesus Christ."

The Pregnancy Resource Center offers free and confidential services including pregnancy tests and verification, pregnancy options counseling, ultrasound and nurse consultation, community referrals and resources, maternity and baby needs such as clothing, furniture, and supplies, abortion recovery help, sexual health awareness, classes on parenting, discipleship, abortion recovery, and sexual healing, education forums, and speakers.

For more information on the Pregnancy Resource Center, visit their website at www.pregnancyresourcecenter.com or call (760) 945-HOPE or their 24 hour hotline (800) 395-HELP. Students can receive these services at Birth Choice in San Marcos on Thursday from 1-4pm. They can also call Birth Choice at 760-744-1313 for appointments.

The Pregnancy Resource Center of North County is located at 4095-B Oceanside Blvd in Oceanside.

President of the Catholic Club Phil Hoffman welcomes anyone interested in ultrasound technology or life at its earliest stages to attend if they have any questions or simply wish to gather more information.

"This is our big event for the semester and we want to be able to notify interested students of their campus opportunities," said Hoffman. "We want to be able to give pregnant women a clear view and opportunity to see their child in the womb. Life is so precious and to be able to capture life in the early stages of pregnancy is moving. We also hope any interested students will be able to come by the RV and get more information about pregnancy from a pro-life perspective."
