About Nurturing Center
The Nurturing Center is a local non-profit organization serving the West Texas area. We model our organization after the International Nurturing Network. Our primary goal is to provide to young women faced with an unexpected pregnancy compassionate practical resources.
"We're here to help." Four words that can mean so much when you are faced with unforeseen circumstances that can happen in life. A pregnancy is one of those circumstances, and it can be scary. Suddenly, there are so many questions that need answers, what-ifs to look at, and decisions to make.
After dealing with the initial shock of finding out you are pregnant, it is common to have feelings of doubt and anxiety. It is common to feel as if you are trapped. You're not. There are options. That is why the Nurturing Center is here.
Many times, abortion is offered as the only alternative for a crisis pregnancy.
For a woman faced with the event of a crisis pregnancy, we believe that providing practical resources for a new compassionate mother faced with the event of a crisis pregnancy allows her to expand her options. The resources we provide empowers the woman and enables her to choose the best option for herself and her child.
Nurturing Center strives to create an environment that affirms life, love, and joy. "You are not Alone."

From the Director
Lawrence D’Souza
Founder and Executive Director
Mission Nurturing Center - Lubbock
Modern Medical Science, with the help of Ultra Sound Technology, proves to us beyond a shadow of a doubt that All human life begins at the moment of Conception. We are committed to defending the Sanctity of all Human Life. The central issue is that all abortions kill a Human Life. In 1973 the Supreme Court issued the Roe v Wade opinion which resulted in the deaths of more than fifty million babies to date. The very first sentence of the ruling “We need not resolve the difficult question of when life begins” clearly indicated that there was a shadow of doubt as they could not reach a consensus on the most important aspect of the case. This is contrary to our Constitution.
Whatsoever you do for the least of these, you do unto me. Whatsoever you fail to do for the least of these, you fail to do unto me” Matt 25.

Consider This:
A preacher and his wife live in abject poverty. They have fourteen children. She is pregnant with number fifteen. Considering the quality of life for both the parents and the unborn child, would you direct she abort?
If you counseled aborting this child, you would have murdered Beethoven before he wrote his first note.
A teenage girl comes to you who is pregnant. She is engaged to be married, but her fiancé is not the father of her baby. She has just told her fiancé, and he is very upset. Would you recommend an abortion in this case?
The engaged teenager was the mother of Jesus of Nazareth, whose love for you held Him to the most painful execution apparatus ever devised. He created every victim and perpetrator of abortion in His own image.
