Facilitator

About Lifeline 
In 1997, a group of volunteers with a heart for human life founded what is now known as Lifeline. Their vision: to create a Christ-centered resource for anyone affected by an unexpected pregnancy. Did they have any idea how that vision would take root in Kirksville and reach its branches across Northeast Missouri?

Lifeline currently serves over 250 clients and 9,000 public school students a year. Our goal is to provide support and tangible resources to new moms and dads as they progress through pregnancy and into parenthood. From pregnancy tests and ultrasounds to abuse prevention education programs reaching thousands of teens in over 50 schools, Lifeline extends numerous opportunities for all to experience abundant life. 

We exist to save and change lives. Want to come along for the ride? We’d love to have you aboard our mission to bring hope to families all over Northeast Missouri.
