Our Ministries
Project Rachel
Project Rachel offers free, confidential, non-judgemental services and support to any woman or man seeking Post-Abortion healing. This personalized program is offered to individuals and/or in group settings in-person or virtually. Since 2001, NSUL has continuously offered supportive services through Project Rachel. Over the years, new facilitators and new program elements have been added to enhance participant experience allowing us to facilitate programs simultaneously. As facilitators, we understand that it is the Lord who is in charge of His miraculous healing.
“A voice is heard in Ramah, lamentation and weeping bitterly: it is Rachel weeping for her children, refusing to be comforted for her children, because they are no more. There is hope for your future, says the Lord, and your children shall come back to their country.” (Jer. 31:15,17)

Youth Ministry
Youth Ministry – NSUL engages youth on important life topics through youth conferences such as Steubenville Atlantic, and we engage local youth groups to inform them regarding important life decisions. We provide free pro-life educational material and visuals to impart depth of understanding of faith based morals and values, and we provide free pro-life merchandise and giveaways such as fetus feet pins, comics, brochures, etc. NSUL also supports youth groups by providing presentations and talks on a wide variety of life issues to educate youth regarding important faith based morals and values, to prepare them to navigate through real life challenges and struggles applicable to their day-to-day lives. Contact us regarding youth presentations and resources.
Events
“Unite the Clans” is hosted by NSUL annually in the fall with speakers covering a variety of life topics. Presenters are a mix of local, national and international voices from medical professionals, educators, church leaders, and personal witnesses.
