Did you know that 1,000,000 children in America die each year?
The death of so many children affects us all and this tragedy can be stopped.
It is a priority of the Anglicans for Life, Christ Church Vero Beach Chapter,
to help save local lives and support likeminded efforts in the USA.
If that mission resonates with you, please join our chapter.

OUR MISSION
Anglicans for Life mission is to encourage, equip and empower Christ Church Vero Beach to
fulfill Scripture’s mandate to protect the vulnerable, defend the fatherless and plead for the
widow. The purpose of our Chapter is to bring the Anglican Communion and the wider body
of Christ, who value the authority of Scripture and the sanctity of life, into an organized
fellowship that will advocate for life within the local church body and provide a much needed
life-affirming ministry in the local community. This is expressed by members of AFL who
will, in a setting where life affirming ministry is often misunderstood and considered
optional in the Church, make it plain that life issues are Gospel issues, and that, in Jesus
Christ, God’s promises of forgiveness, hope, provision and healing are available for all.
