We would like to invite you to tour Guiding Star Ministries, our maternity home in North Philadelphia on this Saturday, July 14, from 2:00 – 4:00 p.m. Please come visit and see some good news in action.

At Guiding Star Ministries, we are able to offer a real alternative to abortion vulnerable women, providing an option with an affirming, supportive choice for life.

The help extends beyond the walls of the house, as we provide baby supplies, job training and connections, and parenting training and support to families in the community.

Currently at Guiding Star there are six moms, nine children and two unborn babies on the way. This year five Guiding Star resident moms have given birth to five beautiful babies, including a 5.4 lb baby girl this past Sunday!
