The Essence of 1st Way is love ...

• We believe that the most important commodity we have to offer pregnant women and girls is ourselves

• We offer love and understanding to all who call upon us for help

• We believe in the sanctity of life:

  • The life of the baby as well as the mother

• We further believe that there is never a reason to offer destruction as an answer to an unplanned pregnancy
