Association strengthens partnerships between like-minded PCCs. Interaction and networking are facilitated through the Summit (an annual conference), the prayer calendar, and social networks. Association fees help Life Matters Worldwide provide ongoing education and support for PCCs.

The purpose of Life Matters Worldwide is to establish and help sustain PCCs as effective gospel outreaches. We seek to strengthen partnerships between PCCs and churches. 

Sometimes you just need someone to talk to, a person who cares on the other end of the line. We'd like to do that for you, as with have done for other centers. Here are a few examples:

• Finding their way past loss blog post about how we helped the Pregnancy Center of Lapeer
• Strengthening PCCs, part 1 video about how we helped the Alpha Women's Center of Barry County
• Strengthening PCCs, part 2 video about how we helped Life Resources of Northern Michigan (Cadillac and Big Rapids)

Board training, volunteer training, center consultation, and order processing are important services we offer in the U.S. and internationally. Associates have access to free phone consultation. Excellence and Multi-Satellite level associates also receive free access to training webinars as they become available.

This manual developed by Life Matters Worldwide serves as an in-depth assessment tool and includes sample policies and procedures, job descriptions, surveys, evaluations, and other resources to ensure your center meets high standards that enhance effective operations and Gospel ministry. It is provided to Life Matters Worldwide associates. See the explanation of fees and benefits for details.
