Victims Of Their Own Success...

The Good Counsel Network has been so successful that it has seen a five-fold increase in the number of women seen. These women would, without Good Counsel's support, probably have felt that they needed to have an abortion, as they had no other way to support themselves through pregnancy and just after.

Unfortunately, the Good Counsel Network is in desperate need of funds to help support these women and their babies - it provides food, clothing and even homes for them, and it all costs money.

So, the season of Lent having an emphasis on almsgiving, please do consider giving money to the Good Counsel Network. You can donate via PayPal, through justgiving.com or even by cheque or standing order. All the details are available on the Good Counsel's website.

And if you want to give something more specific, such as vouchers for maternity clothes, baby buggies, moses baskets and so on, check out the baby goods information page - the Network has limited storage space, so it asks for specific items as needed, but there are a few things which are always required!

If you aren't able to contribute financially, then offer some prayers for the work done by the Good Counsel Network - a rosary or two, or some time before the Blessed Sacrament, or the Stations of the Cross...

Good Counsel really does help to save lives, so please give what you can.
