January 24th, 2010 - Sanctity of Human Life Day
You are invited to an open house at East County Pregnancy Care Clinic on Sunday, January 24th, 2010 from 1 PM to 4 PM as we celebrate Sanctity Of Human Life Day.
In a January 13, 1984 proclamation, President Ronald Reagan designated January 22, 1984 as the first National Sanctity of Human Life Day. The date was chosen to coincide with the 11th anniversary of the Roe v. Wade Supreme Court case that legalized abortions in the United States and Doe v. Bolten which made abortion legal throughout all nine month of pregnancy if the mother's health was in jeopardy-which includes emotional stress of pregnancy, and it opend the door for this law to be upheld in all 50 states. Reagan issued the proclamation annually thereafter, designating Sanctity of Human Life Day to be the third Sunday in January, which represents the closest Sunday to the original January 22 date. His successor, George H. W. Bush, continued the annual proclamation throughout his presidency. Bush's successor, Bill Clinton, discontinued the practice throughout his eight years in office, but Bush's son and Clinton's successor, George W. Bush, resumed the proclamation, and has done so every year since his inauguration. The pro-life community has continued to set this day aside each year since it’s inception to pray for an end to abortion. East County Pregnancy Care Clinic offers pro-life material to the community churches to assist in their remembrance of this day.

March 6th, 2010 - Walk For Life
Downloadable Forms: Sponsor Form Instructions and Q&A
Each spring, East County Pregnancy Care Clinic holds an annual, two-mile, “stroller to wheelchair” Walk for Life fundraiser. Participants obtain sponsors who pledge a total amount to be donated upon the walker's completion of the event. This, in turn, helps raise important funds for the ongoing operation of the Clinic. On the day of the event, walkers gather at a community park and Walk for Life while praying to end abortion in this country. Those not able to attend can walk on their own wherever they are--so this is truly something everyone can do. Not only is the Walk a fun and fit way to raise money for the Clinic, but it also makes a statement, letting the world know that the Culture of Life is alive and well in San Diego County! FREE parking inside the gates at Santee Lakes this year! Please join us immediately following the Walk for a celebratory picnic. Hot dogs will be provided free of charge! Call (619)442-4357 for more information.

This year's speaker will be Lynn Vincent (www.lynnvincent.com, collaborator on the best-selling book, "Going Rogue", by Sarah Palin). We are blessed in song by a special musical guest and often moved to tears after hearing clients’ testimonies. It is an evening of information, inspiration and motivation. At the end of the night an invitation is given to get involved and support ECPCC through the gift of finances and/or time by volunteering. This is an event like no other-an evening not to be missed!
