THE POWER OF VISION AND PURPOSE
The vision for the BBQ is to restore the natural affections of parents that our culture removed, restored back to their baby. We want all babies saved from abortion death, and their parents to be honored with a baby quilt. The BBQ is a powerful tool in the sidewalk counselor's life-saving arsenal to  reach and serve abortion-minded expectant mothers and fathers. The evangelism imbedded in the BBQ can further open doors to promote the healing of Jesus Christ and encourage parents who have already experienced prenatal losses to participate in a Rich in Mercy Abortion & Miscarriage Recovery group.

​THE POWER OF A QUILT
Sometimes it’s little things that provide the needed push for a parent – especially mothers - to do what they already know is the right thing to do. Offering expectant, abortion-minded mothers a homemade quilt to honor their child helps parents reconnect emotionally with their baby. Quilts break down ambivalence, humanize their child, and incentivize parents to choose life for their precious little one, and where necessary, make a respectful adoption plan. Once reconnected, the sidewalk counselor can further deepen the client relationship, and referrals to a local pregnancy center would become more acceptable. Local centers let expectant mothers know that they'll have the support they need to choose life for their child. Optimally, the quilt can then be presented to the baby's family at a baby shower.
