Whether teaching sexual integrity, saving lives of pre-born babies, teaching life skills, or offering hope and healing, PASS network for life seeks to ensure the stability of the family. PASS network for life is not only about saving lives, but also about preserving the life of the family as part of God’s plan for future generations. we do this through the following four areas:
The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life and have it abundantly. John 10:10 (ESV)
PREVENTION – IMPACT
In 1988, PASS network for life made the intentional decision to stand for the abstinence until marriage lifestyle. IMPACT abstinence education developed age-appropriate, interactive and culturally relevant presentations for middle school, high school and college students to combat the “safer sex” message predominant in culture. Students are empowered to make the healthiest decisions regarding love, sex and relationships. Discussion based presentations are also available for parents.
INTERVENTION-PASS pregnancy care centers
The most recognizable arm of PASS is the INTERVENTION pillar. Through Intervention, clients are given information one-on-one, necessary to make informed decisions about their pregnancy. We offer free limited ultrasounds at our Tinley Park location. In addition to pregnancy tests, clients receive options guidance in the areas of adoption, abortion, parenting, relationships and the gospel. Our crisis pregnancy clients are vulnerable to abortion and many are undecided about their pregnancy decision. We operate three pregnancy care centers which are located in Lansing, South Holland and Tinley Park.

HOW…
Because we are a 501(c)3 organization and accept no federal funding, we rely on businesses, churches and individuals to support our ministry work with financial giving.* Baby supplies are needed such as diapers, wipes, bottles, pacifiers, baby clothes, blankets, bathing supplies and MUCH MORE. Consider hosting a “Baby Shower” where items are brought to the shower to benefit the baby. We offer our Baby Bottle Boomerang program which encourages giving by filling a PASS network for life provided baby bottle with spare change.
