Morning Star Maternity Home is a Christian non-profit Crisis Pregnancy Home. It is operated by Morning Star Ministries of the North Penn Area, Inc., offering a positive alternative to abortion.
What We Do
Morning Star supplies housing and related services to teens and young women facing crisis pregnancies. The need for safe housing in a loving, nurturing environment is crucial to someone who is struggling with an unplanned or unwanted pregnancy. We have found that if given the hope we endeavor to provide, young women are less likely to turn to an abortion as a solution to their crisis.
We offer care that begins when the resident arrives and ends when she and her baby have a safe environment in which to return.
We not only provide housing, but also help with other needs relating to unplanned pregnancy such as keeping up with education, the coordination of medical care, teaching of life and parenting skills, counseling, etc.
