With playgrounds and parks on every street corner, Israel is one of the most family-centric countries in the world. And it's not just the ultra-Orthodox increasing our birth rate, we also have the highest birth rate in the world of those identifying as secular. This has stumped many demographers, as typically most "developed" nations have very low fertility rates.
I wish the story could end just there. But despite the amazing focus on families, Israel is one of the most liberal countries in the world when it comes to abortion! Just like the bill that was passed in New York, abortion in Israel is legal until birth! Therefore, one of our ministry outreaches is training pro-life counselors and counseling at-risk mothers. Abortion is a global fight. As you pray for the unborn, please pray for us and our friends and partners as we fight for life!
