The Psalm 139 Project, a pro-life ministry of the Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission (ERLC), has donated an ultrasound machine to a pregnancy resource center in Anchorage, in partnership with the Alaska Baptist Resource Network and the Alabama Baptist State Board of Missions.

The Sept. 24 ceremony at Community Pregnancy Center was attended by Bobby Reed, ERLC’s chief financial officer, Rick Lance, executive director for Alabama Baptists, and Randy Covington, outgoing executive director of the Alaska convention.

“The Scriptures tell us that every life is a sacred gift, and we’re honored to stand alongside the Community Pregnancy Center in this vital work,” Reed said. “We’re grateful to support CPC’s decades-long commitment to serving women and families in Anchorage with compassion and truth.”

Lance praised the partnership between the ERLC and both state conventions that made the ultrasound placement possible.

“Alabama Baptists – by conviction and without reservation – are among those who stand for the sanctity of all human life,” Lance said.

“We have done so in linking arms with the Psalm 139 Project to help provide ultrasound machines to pregnancy centers in our own state. Now, because of our state convention’s missions partnership with churches in the Alaska Baptist Resource Network, we have the privilege of placing a machine at the Community Pregnancy Center in Anchorage. To God be the glory as the Psalm 139 Project, Alabama Baptists and Alaska Baptists continue to advocate for the protection and care of those who are the most defenseless among us.”
