Dr. Matthew Harrison

Dr. Matthew Harrison is a board-certified Family Medicine physician practicing in North Carolina for the past 23 years. He performed the first abortion pill reversal in 2006. Since that time, he has helped grow a network of over 2000 providers in 86 countries that have successfully saved over 4500 babies. He is Medical Director for three local crisis pregnancy centers, including one that provides free full prenatal care to abortion vulnerable women.  Dr. Harrison has coauthored several peer reviewed research publications and serves as treasurer of Steno Institute for pro-life research. Dr. Harrison has assisted many state legislatures in penning informed consent laws for women undergoing medical abortions, ensuring that they know there may be a chance to reverse their abortions if they change their minds.

MAY 9, 2024 at 7:00PM at the Charles Mack Citizen Center

The Board of Directors of the Community Pregnancy Center of Lake Norman invites you to join us for an inspiring evening with an inspirational message from Dr. Matthew Harrison including EXCITING NEWS you will not want to miss! 

By attending you will be…

  • INSPIRED by Dr. Matthew Harrison’s encouraging message
  • EDUCATED about the efforts of the Community Pregnancy Center of Lake Norman to empower moms to choose life and save babies
  • EQUIPPED and EMPOWERED to make an even greater life-saving impact in our community– what could be more rewarding than knowing that you helped to save the life of a precious baby.
  • MOTIVATED to support this important work at this crucial time; during the event you’ll have opportunities to make one-time donations and/or monthly pledges– all proceeds benefit the Community Pregnancy Center of Lake Norman.

We operate solely on the funds donated by individuals/families, churches, and companies local to
Lake Norman. We do not accept government funding of any kind. This fundraising event accounts
for raising over 40% of our annual budget.

Our goal for the fundraising dinner this year is $250,000

Every dollar raised above the cost of the event goes toward funding our mission. The donations from this event fuel the mission of the Pregnancy Center. It takes nearly $1,200 to empower one mom to choose life for her child.
Your gift will ensure our services remain free of charge to our clients.

Mission Statement:

The Community Pregnancy Center is a faith-based ministry empowering women facing crisis pregnancies
to choose life by offering physical, emotional, and spiritual support.

Services:

The following services are free of charge and strictly confidential.

  • Pregnancy tests and limited ultrasound.
  • Education on pregnancy, abortion and its risks, abortion alternatives and adoption education.
  • Referrals for medical care, Social Services and adoption.
  • HOPE – one year support program.  This group focuses on parenting, including ongoing education, prenatal care, parenting skills, life skills, job and interview education, etc. Bi-monthly Bible study is a  part of HOPE as well. Maternity clothes, infant to toddler clothes, baby furniture, and food and formula supplied through HOPE.
  • “Forgiven and Set Free” post-abortion counseling for those experiencing the ongoing pain of a past abortion.
  • Counseling on sexual lifestyle  decisions  and  the  biblical view of abstinence. Education on abstinence offered to our community.

Table Host Information

Prayerfully consider, then personally invite at least 8 people including you to attend our Fundraising Event.   

It takes nearly $1,200 to empower one mom to choose life for her child at the Pregnancy Center.

This year our goal is to empower 208 moms through this Fundraising Event

If each table group empowers 4 moms we will reach our goal.

$4,800 may sound like an ambitious goal, but it helps to know what we are reaching for
and what we are trusting GOD to provide.

There are just three steps to follow:

  1. Pray. Let GOD lead you as you invite guests for your table.
  2. As you are deciding who to invite, think of people of influence in your church, neighborhood, or work place (doctors, lawyers, business professionals, your pastor, etc.) who would have a heart for our ministry and the means to give.
  3. Share your heart for the pregnancy care ministry with them and let them know it’s a fundraising event.

To put things in perspective, remember that our goal can be reached through one time gifts as well as monthly pledges.  If each of your 8 guests pledged to give as little as $50 per month, it would meet your table’s goal.

Make sure your guests understand that there is no charge for them to join the event.  Don’t be afraid to let them know it is a Fundraising Event.  The ministry is funded by many people who are not necessarily wealthy, but have a heart and a commitment to the ministry.

After receiving a yes from your invited guests, be sure and provide them with a reservation card so they have all of the information needed to attend. Then call them 4 days before the event to confirm their reservation.  

Please complete the necessary “Table Host Guest List” and return it by April 18, 2024.  You may send this list by fax or email. 

Be sure to include your guests’ email addresses.

Reconfirm your list by, May 2, 2024. Call the CPC (704-664-4673) or email us additions or deletions.
