Council for Life is motivated by Christ-like love and responsive compassion. We are committed to raising public awareness of the complex issues that surround unplanned pregnancies and providing financial support to agencies that share our mission. We celebrate Life in all we do.

Since 2001, Council for Life and our Greater Fort Worth and Greater Waco Affiliates have grown to over 7,000 members and raised and funded more than $20 million benefiting over 90 life-affirming nonprofits. Council for Life provides a nexus between resources and needs as they relate to unplanned pregnancies. Our Beneficiaries provide free, compassionate care and vital resources to vulnerable women, men and youth through pregnancy resource centers, adoption and foster care, maternity homes, youth mentoring, parenting and life skills education, post-abortion counseling, sexual risk avoidance and targeted media outreach campaigns.
This year Council for Life joyfully celebrates 25 years of steadfast commitment to the dignity and sanctity of every human life. During that time, Council for Life has brought together compassionate leaders, generous supporters and life-affirming organizations to empower women, men and youth to make life-affirming choices. As we mark this milestone, we give thanks for the enduring impact made possible through God’s faithfulness and the unwavering dedication of our community.

An Advocate for Life, at any level, is a supporter of Council for Life. There are no mandatory meetings, volunteer obligations or other requirements. Simply be counted among those who believe in the worth and dignity of every human life.
Since its beginning, Council for Life has been committed to raising significant funds for non-profit agencies that share our mission of honoring the sanctity of life. To date, Council for Life has raised and donated over $14 million to more than 75 life-affirming beneficiaries.
Since 2001, our donors have trusted Council for Life with their resources. By supporting CFL, you enable us to educate our community about the complex issues surrounding unplanned pregnancies and to be the connector providing financial support to beneficiaries that serve women and families in need as they courageously choose LIFE in the midst of a culture that tells them otherwise.
Council for Life is honored to partner with life-affirming agencies serving the most vulnerable in our community. Each of these agencies has received a grant from CFL and sets a standard of excellence providing compassionate care and free and confidential services to those faced with the complex issues surrounding unplanned pregnancies.
Council for Life was thrilled to recognize Amy and Malone Mitchell, philanthropic leaders in the Dallas community dedicated to the cause of Life, as this year’s Luncheon Honorary Chairs.

A Prayer for Baby Gabriel 🩵
Today, we pray for Baby Gabriel, the precious boy whose life reminds us that every life is worthy of love, no matter the circumstances.
When McKenna West learned that the baby she was carrying had a serious heart condition, she bravely chose to continue the pregnancy and give him the chance at life, despite the wishes of his biological parents to have him aborted.
Gabriel was born last week here in Dallas and yesterday underwent heart surgery.
🙏 Lord, protect this precious child. Strengthen his tiny heart, guide his doctors and surround him with Your grace and love.
May his story remind us that a diagnosis does not diminish a child`s dignity. Every child deserves the chance to be born, to be loved and to live.

Where are they?
It is estimated that 12 million Gen Alpha babies (2010-2024) were lost to abortion. Nearly one in five members of an entire generation never had the chance to take their first breath.
đź’”Imagine the empty chair at a kindergarten table.
đź’”The future teacher who would have inspired hundreds of students.
đź’”The little boy who would have written a bestselling novel.
đź’”The young girl who would have healed countless patients.
đź’”Imagine the friendships never formed, the families never created, the lives never touched.
Each baby was more than a statistic. Each was a unique, unrepeatable life with a future known fully to God.
Join us in prayer for the protection of every baby in the womb. Please use your voice and courageous leadership to ensure that each child is welcomed into the world and given the opportunity to become all that God created them to be.

Take a trip back with us to where it all began! 🌟
Our very first Luncheon was held in October 2002 at the Dallas Country Club where more than 260 guests gathered for what was then called the Celebrities Celebrating Life Luncheon.
At the time, Council for Life was called the Pregnancy Resource Council and funded just one Beneficiary: Dallas Pregnancy Resource Center (now called Thrive). What began with one ministry and a faithful community has grown into a movement impacting thousands of women, children and families across North Texas.
The first Luncheon featured actress Jennifer O`Neill who courageously shared her abortion story and God`s redemption in her life.
Also joining us that day:
• Board President: Sarah Perot
• Luncheon Chair: Ann Carruth
• Honorary Luncheon Chair: Annette Simmons
• DPRC Development Director: Barbara Adams
• Emcee: Scott Sams, Channel 8 News
As we celebrate 25 years of A Legacy of Love and Life, we are grateful for everyone who has been part of this journey. We look forward to our Celebrating Life Luncheon this year on October 29 with special guest Tim Tebow as we praise God for 25 years of saving babies and helping families. Purchase table or tickets at cflluncheon.com.

Two hundred and fifty years ago, our nation was born when 56 courageous men signed the Declaration of Independence, proclaiming the revolutionary truth that all people are created equal and endowed by their Creator with unalienable rights—including life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
As we celebrate the birth of this great country, we also celebrate 25 years of Council for Life’s mission to help ensure that every American child has the opportunity to celebrate her own birth. Every unborn child—regardless of size, stage of development, environment, or degree of dependency—is worthy of love and protection, beginning with her most fundamental right: the right to life.
Thanks be to God for the blessings of life and liberty, and for the true freedom we have in Christ.

Four years ago today, the Dobbs decision overturned Roe v. Wade and marked a historic victory for life. But the fight continues.
Abortion has moved online and is reaching Texas women at alarming rates, creating a new threat to unborn children.
