Need for free maternity hospitals

By Mike Miller  ·  Jun 16, 2011

Samaritan member Susan Eby talks in this blog post about the need to support local crisis pregnancy centers, and goes on to share her excitement about The Morning Center.

Recently, we were so excited to hear that the program we participate in for sharing health costs, which we’ve subscribed to for many years– Samaritan Ministries– is in the process of taking the good work of these crisis pregnancy centers to the significant next step– providing free maternity hospitals for women! After choosing to honor the life of their pre-born child, many of these same women often struggle with the costs involved in healthcare and the safe delivery of the child. Free maternity hospitals therefore would help overcome this financial burden, while providing the best in care.
Funded exclusively by private donations and charitable giving, Samaritan Ministries will open its first pilot facility in the next year, with the hope that this will be the start of many more free maternity hospitals– called Morning Centers– all over the nation, providing complete prenatal care and highly trained staff, as well as equipment to sufficiently meet any maternity medical situation.
