Partnership of life affirming churches
We invite all Gospel-proclaiming congregations to our growing alliance of local churches to advance a culture of life in our community through The St. Pete Partnership of Life-Affirming Churches.
Why This Matters
We believe the issue of life is not merely political—it is spiritual. It is an issue of justice, discipleship, and gospel witness. Abortion has had a more devastating impact on human flourishing than any other form of violence in history—and it affects the people in our pews just as much as it does those outside the Church.
As stewards of the Gospel, we are called to respond with truth, compassion, and practical help. Yet no single church can meet all the needs alone. That’s why we believe The Next STEPP Center—our city’s gospel-centered, medical pregnancy resource center—is God’s provision for us to help us accomplish this mission.
How Your Church Can Partner
AS INDIVIDUAL BELIEVERS:
- Include Next STEPP in REGULAR, personal giving
- Join events like
Sing For Life
- Pray and explore God’s call to serve in life ministry as a volunteer or staff member
AS A CONGREGATION:
- Add Next STEPP to your monthly or annual missions budget
- Promote Next STEPP in your communications and services
- Join other churches at
Sing For Life and other community events
- Assign a liaison to stay connected and mobilize your church
- Invite A Next STEPP representative to share at your church about the ministry
Looking for a great church family where you can grow in your faith?
Consider one of our Life partnering Churches, where the Gospel of Jesus Christ is being faithfully proclaimed, and congregations are seeking to live out the Sermon on the Mount & the Great Commission.
