Church Resources
Tools to help your church partner with Thrive
We believe some of the most important life-affirming influence takes place not inside our clinic’s walls, but in the churches in our community. That’s why we’re passionate about partnering with you—the local church—to ensure that no one in our community has to face an unplanned pregnancy alone.
Resources for churches
The Safe Place Booklet
Want to lean into Thrive’s mission? Our Becoming a Safe Place booklet is the best place to start!
This little booklet captures our passion for seeing the church be a safe place for anyone facing unplanned pregnancy, and what that means in belief and in practice. We’ve also created a set of companion resources to equip small groups or classes to walk through this booklet together.
Invite small groups to read it • Lead a class • Share with your congregation • Discuss with church leaders
Study guides, videos, and more
We’ve created lesson plans, powerful patient story videos, prayer guides, restroom flyers, and more—so that inviting your church to share in Thrive’s mission is simple and impactful.
Thrive promo materials
Graphics, logos, images, and more
When Thrive shows up consistently across our community—with the same logos, images, and words—patients are better able to recall who we are and what we do in their moment of need.
This folder contains a promotional kit with graphics and printables you can use when you’re promoting Thrive at your church. It also has high-resolution logos, images of Thrive, and a few different paragraphs you can copy and paste into your communications.

Ways for your church to get involved
Pray.
Prayer is the most essential part of Thrive’s ministry. When churches across the community lift up people facing unplanned pregnancies in prayer, the impact goes far beyond what we can even see.
→ Sign up to receive real-time, anonymous patient prayer requests along with important Thrive updates.
→ Guided Prayer: Use with staff, small groups, or your congregation to pray for Thrive and people facing unplanned pregnancy in our community.
Learn.
Ready to invite your congregation to lean into Thrive’s mission? Start by showing our impact video in a church service. This video highlights what Thrive does, why we do it, and the incredible impact you have as partners with us!
Next, we recommend sharing our Becoming a Safe Place booklet with staff or other church leaders, and taking time to discuss what becoming a safe place might look like for your church.
From there, you can explore our resources for individuals and churches to engage your congregation in learning!
Give.
Move Thrive’s mission forward by partnering with us through financial support, and explore these additional ways to give:
→ Capital Campaign: Join our initiative to pay off our mortgage, and secure a safe place for 40 more years!
→ Baby Bottle Boomerang: Mark your calendar for our biggest fundraiser of the year, taking place annually from Mother’s Day to Father’s Day, and consider getting your church involved!
