EFRAT: Supporting Israel’s Pro-Life Movement with Compassion

The pro-life movement can seem like a uniquely American force. But the battle for life is worldwide and has a steadfast friend and ally in the Holy Land. EFRAT (IsraelBabies.com) is the pro-life movement in Israel. They have helped thousands of women every single year prevent the terrible atrocity of abortions. Since 1977, 88,000 babies have been brought into the world safe and sound because of EFRAT’s life-giving work.

Nir Salomon, EFRAT’s executive director, notes that when his son goes into the battlefield as a member of the Golani brigade, he cannot guarantee his safety. “But God gives us free choice in the moment of taking a life when it comes to abortion,” he explains.

The organization comes around pregnant moms in their moment of greatest need. Feeling great anxiety over the financial costs involved in having another child and oftentimes experiencing pressure to end the pregnancy, EFRAT is by their side. “Sometimes we need to be the outstretched arm of God Almighty Himself,” Nir shares.

EFRAT offers material assistance in the form of a crib, a carriage, two years of baby diapers, and formula. They also provide job training for moms. And just as important, they provide emotional cushion to these women who are under great duress. “Now they are able to breathe and experience that deep desire to mother that baby, and when they have that opportunity, the clear answer to giving birth is an overwhelming yes,” he said.

“When you support EFRAT, you are giving these women the greatest gift in their lives, and that is their child,” he adds.

By helping Israel’s moms “choose life,” as Moses declares in Deuteronomy 30:19, you can also obey the command of God in Genesis 12:3 to bless the people of Israel, and so thereby receive a blessing. “Please help more Jewish babies come into the world,” Nir says.
