Who we are

We are a group of Christians from many different churches in Bloomington and Southern Indiana. We come from various backgrounds and histories. We are bound together in our common desire to serve God by helping others who are affected by abortion and other sanctity of life issues.

We work primarily through education, community service and political action. We also have trained counselors who have had direct experience in these matters who seek to provide practical and spiritual help to those who are facing or currently live with the consequences of abortion.

Most of the active members of CCFL were former members of the Monroe County Right to Life in Bloomington Indiana – which was a pro-life group with the same commitments as the CCFL. The reason we organized with a new name is that we wanted to emphasize the Lordship of Christ and the reason for our work in defending the unborn, speaking out against abortion and in support of the sanctify of life.

Erin Houchin remarks on protecting minors

This is the text of the remarks that State Senator Erin Houchin gave at the Indiana Right to Life press conferences on June 20. Good morning. I'm State Senator Erin Houchin from Senate District 47, and I was proud to author Senate Enrolled Act 404 in 2017, which sought to protect young girls, under the age of 16, who seek to obtain an abortion. In Indiana, the age of consent is 16 years of age. When minors under this age seek to terminate pregnancies, it is critical for these cases to be reported to the Department of Child Services and the Indiana State Department of Health to determine if illegal action took place, or if these girls were victimized or are in danger in any way. At these young and vulnerable ages, sometimes as young as 12 years old, it is likely that these pregnancies did not occur as a result of legal, consensual activity. It is the duty of the DCS and law enforcement to examine the circumstances behind each case to determine what, if any, action should be take...

Peggy Mayfield remarks on protecting minors

This is the text of the remarks that State Representative Peggy Mayfield gave at the Indiana Right to Life press conferences on June 20. I am grateful for the opportunity to address you today. As House sponsor of SEA 404, the bill that provided for the reporting requirements at issue, I applaud the vigilant efforts of Indiana Right to Life to hold Planned Parenthood accountable for protecting our young girls-- girls under 16—girls not yet old enough to get a driver’s license--who have had abortions performed on them. A girl this young, in these cases as young as 12, must either obtain her parent’s consent or the court’s permission before having an abortion. In addition, the provider must notify the Dept. of Child Services within 3 days of the procedure. The reason for this is clear: the age of consent in Indiana is 16. Any pregnant girls younger than that could be the victim of a variety of sex crimes or trafficking. Doctors play an integral part in identifying and reducing...
