\"efrat\"Yesterday I met a Jewish pro-life man who shared great news with me. He told me of an organization called EFRAT\u00a0<\/a>that has helped save 35,000 children from abortion in Israel.<\/p>\n

EFRAT’s approach is simple:\u00a0When women in Israel register for abortions, they’re asked why they want to end the life of the child. If they say financial reasons, they are given EFRAT’s number. After a volunteer talks with them and assesses their needs, they may receive services from the organization.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Pregnant moms have diapers, formula, canned and dry food delivered to their door for a year. That’s over an $850 value that they receive for free. In some cases, Efrat helps mom for the second year, as well. Moms receive free baby equipment, including a crib, bassinet, baby bath, stroller, and baby kit. In addition, they are matched with a caring volunteer who provides support through their pregnancy. \u00a0EFRAT has over 3,000 volunteers in Israel. This is a great video<\/a>\u00a0interview sharing the mission of Efrat.<\/p>\n

The group shares letters from mothers who\u00a0have\u00a0been helped by its\u00a0services, including this\u00a0touching story:<\/p>\n

Dr. Schussheim and the entire staff of Efrat,<\/p>\n

I thank you with all my heart for your financial support during this difficult time.
\nToday, I am grateful to all those who stood at my side during this period and didn’t let me have an abortion.
\nYou will understand when you see Tal’s picture that I can’t imagine my life without her.
\nShe is a child filled with happiness and everyone loves her.<\/p>\n

Thanks again,
\nMF<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

If you’d like to see the faces of children saved in Israel and watch the mother’s story, you can check out this video<\/a> EFRAT made highlighting their stories. As Rabbi Mordechai Eliahu\u00a0says in this endorsements video<\/a>, “…we need to obey the commandments and do good deeds,\u00a0and the best deed we could hope to do is to prevent an abortion.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
