Who We Are

A Safe Space to
Walk Your Path

Life Empowerment for Pregnancy Choices provides compassionate support to women facing unplanned pregnancies. Based in Waltham, Massachusetts, we are committed to creating a safe, caring, and non-judgmental environment where individuals can access the support and resources they need during one of life's most important journeys.

We understand that an unplanned pregnancy can bring uncertainty, emotional challenges, and difficult decisions. That is why we are here to walk alongside women every step of the way — offering encouragement, practical assistance, and access to reliable information so every woman can make her choices with full confidence.

Our services are available to teenagers, college students, married women, single mothers, and women of all ages — from a positive pregnancy test, throughout pregnancy, and beyond childbirth until age one. We offer both in-person and telephone services to ensure our clients' wellbeing wherever they are.

A Heart Called
to Serve

Christine Kirabo Praise
Founder, Life Empowerment for Pregnancy Choices

My name is Christine Kirabo Praise and I am honored to be the founder of this ministry. What began as a deeply personal journey of faith has become a calling to serve women and families facing some of life's most difficult decisions. Years ago, I found myself standing at a crossroads — by His grace, I chose life for both of my children. Today, they are daily reminders of God's faithfulness.

My journey was not without challenges. There were moments when I felt overwhelmed, alone, and unsure of how I would move forward. Yet through every obstacle, God never left my side. He provided strength when I was weak, comfort when I was discouraged, and people who encouraged me when I needed them most. Those experiences placed a burden on my heart for other women who may be facing similar circumstances — women who need more than advice. They need compassion, practical support, a listening ear, and the assurance that they are not alone.

That is why this ministry was founded. Our mission is to walk alongside women and families with the love of Christ, offering hope, encouragement, practical resources, and unwavering support during difficult pregnancy journeys. We believe every life is precious, every person deserves to be treated with dignity and compassion, and every family should have access to caring people who will stand beside them without judgment.

Whether you are facing an unexpected pregnancy, struggling with fear, or simply searching for someone who understands — you are seen, you are valued, and you do not have to face this journey alone. My prayer is that this ministry will be a place where hearts are healed, lives are strengthened, and families experience the love and faithfulness of God. To God be all the glory.
