The Greensboro Pregnancy Care Center not only offers free and confidential health services to men and women in the community, but we also provide a variety of classes, resources, and our new Titus 2 Initiative mentorship program.

Christian Mentorship

Because the Care Center is a Christian organization, we want to support women and men, not only physically and emotionally, but also spiritually. For those women seeking more information about the Bible, about Christianity, or how they can grow in their Christian faith, we offer the Titus 2 Initiative.

The initiative is a partnership between Greensboro Pregnancy Care Center and local churches that serves the purpose of connecting clients with both discipleship relationships and opportunities to grow among a body of believers (a local church).

The name comes directly from Titus 2:3-5:

“Older women…are to teach what is good, and so train the young women to love their husbands and children, to be self controlled, pure, working at home, kind, and submissive to their own husbands, that the word of God may not be reviled.”

God’s emphasis on relationships within the body of Christ can’t be missed when reading through the Bible. He calls us to share our life experience, wisdom, and Godly direction with others.

The initiative directly aligns with this teaching. It allows older women (or even women who have been Christians for a while already) the chance to connect with and disciple younger women who are searching for help physically, emotionally, and spiritually.

Our desire is that every woman who walks through our doors be given the opportunity to connect with the body of Christ if she so desires.

The Purpose

Our three-fold purpose in offering this program is as follows:

1. To connect clients with a local body of believers
2. To provide clients with biblical direction and discipleship before, during, and after pregnancy
3. To provide opportunities for the church to carry out the Great Commission in Greensboro; to make “fishers of men” (Matthew 4:19; 28:16-20)

Who are the Participants?

This mentorship opportunity would be available to any of our clients who express a desire to get connected with a local church and explore or develop their relationship with God.

Who are the Mentors?

Women who sign up through their church and commit to pursuing a discipleship relationship with the clients with whom they are connected.

Who are the Ambassadors?

One woman from each church who serves as the contact person between GPCC and participating mentors.

Jessica’s Story

Jessica¹ came to the Care Center a few months ago to take a pregnancy test. After the results came back positive, she made the decision to sign up for our parenting class and the Titus 2 Initiative mentorship program, which would help her connect to a local Church in the Greensboro area. A mentor quickly reached out to Jessica and began inviting her to church.

The relationships and support Jessica has experienced through the Titus 2 program has impacted her decision to raise her child with godly wisdom and love. Recently, a group of women at the church threw Jessica a baby shower, celebrating the new life to come. She has been able to get involved at her new church by volunteering her time with the children’s ministry on Sundays and building relationships with her community.
