Colleen's Lifelines

As many of my friends and colleagues know, I'm retiring.  Our new Executive Director, Marie Leatherby,  is a uniquely qualified and wonderful choice to lead the Sacramento Life Center.  Along with our excellent Board of Directors, staff and volunteers, Marie will help fulfill our mission in a powerful, passionate, and successful manner!
I have very much enjoyed my work here for the past 6 years;  it is providential that I was given the opportunity to be the Executive Director for an organization that simply wants to help women and men make a lifesaving choice - through parenting or adoption - for their preborn children.
My heart and is full, remembering the many incredible people I have worked with or met and I am blessed to have been a part of this lifesaving work.  I have much to be thankful for this Thanksgiving!

On Saturday, November 12, 2011 we invite you to our annual Salute to Life Gala Dinner & Auction!  This year it is at the Radisson Hotel Ballroom, 500 Leisure Lane, Sacramento.   Registration begins at 5:00 p.m. and the dinner begins at 6:30 p.m. This is the Sacramento Valley's premier Pro-Life Celebration to promote LIFE, especially those  of us who are most tiny and fragile.


The tickets are "pricey" - and in these tough times, it is especially challenging for many of us.  However, this is our largest fundraiser that helps us meet our $500,000+ annual budget.  Since all of our lifesaving services are FREE, and we have never asked for or received any government funding, we rely on our friends to help us not only survive but THRIVE!  Your financial support is greatly needed, appreciated, and welcomed  :)


Individual tickets are $125.00 and a table of ten is $1200.00.  We have 15 incredibly beautiful raffle baskets and 22 uniquely wonderful auction items.  Come see old friends and meet new friends, listen to amazing testimonials of two of our clients and celebrate LIFE!


Please call us at 451-4357 for information or to request for an invitation.  We accept credit cards, checks or cash.  


THANK YOU!  We hope to see you on November 12, 2011!

May 24, 2011 was another milestone in the Life Center's history.  We celebrated the official "opening" of our new Saacramento clinic space - same address, different suite.  We are now at 930 Alhambra Blvd. Suite 230!  We have 600 more square feet of space which allows us to have a large, beautiful ultrasound room, two light, airy, and welcoming counseling rooms, space for our male mentoring program, and even a (small) kitchen!  Lots of windows and soothing colors!  Over 100 people came by to wish us well!  Also on display was our Mobile Medical Clinic!  Lots of "oohs" and "aahs" throughout the day!  We are so blessed by the wonderful investors in our LIFESAVING mission!

Now that we all moved into our new clinic space, we are having an Open House on TUESDAY, MAY 24, 2011.  Join us anytime between 2:00 - 7:00 p.m. for sweet treats and much more.

Also, we will have our new mobile pregnancy clinic - our "Lifemobile" available for tours!

Bishop Jaime Soto will give a blessing to our new clinic space at 3:00 p.m. that day.
