Sending donations by check

To support the LifeHouse (in Bakersfield or Taft) or the Elizabeth League, please make your checks payable to LifeSavers Ministries.

To help support the needs of the Palmquist family as missionaries in these ministries, make your checks payable to Tim or Terri Palmquist.

Checks made payable to LifeSavers Ministries or Voice For Life are tax-deductible. (Checks made payable to Tim or Terri Palmquist are not tax-deductible.)


Note: whether your checks are made payable to LifeSavers Ministries, Voice For Life, or Tim or Terri Palmquist, you may mail them to us at P.O. Box 40972, Bakersfield, CA 93384-0972.

Ways you can help: Before you make a decision, please spend some time asking God if he wants you to invest some of your financial resources with us for His Kingdom. You may not receive a financial return on your investment, but something much better may occur: the eternal reward of saved lives and souls!


One-time donations

If God is leading you to support LifeSavers Ministries, your one-time financial investment can be effective in saving many lives and touching many hearts for His glory.

Your $5 donation will help us print small leaflets informing women of the services we provide at our LifeHouse pregnancy help centers.

A cold drink will help someone get through a long, hot day. We have even seen cases where God used a drink of water to save a baby's life! Your $25 donation will help us to provide refreshments to clients and volunteers. Remember, Jesus promised that even a cup of cold water given in His name would not go unrewarded (Mark 9:41).

We offer packets of information to women entering the local abortion chamber. The packets include literature on the risks of abortion, fetal development, a gospel presentation, and information on how we can help. Approximately $30 covers the cost of the pamphlets we usually provide in a month (although we improvise with less expensive--and, sadly, less effective--pamphlets when funds are low).

We provide Baby gifts to women who have chosen life for their babies. Each gift includes a "Hope for the Future" Bible with scriptural resources to help women experiencing difficult pregnancies, along with baby clothes and other items to be used for the baby. It costs us approximately $50 per month to provide these gifts.

We offer post-abortion gifts to women leaving after abortions. These gifts include perfume or other small hygiene items along with a Gospel tract and information about seeking forgiveness and healing after abortion. We spend about $75 per month on post-abortion gifts.

The expenses for our Bakersfield LifeHouse pregnancy help center total about $100 per day (including the lease payment, utility expenses, etc.)

We need various banners to help people find our LifeHouse pregnancy help centers in Taft and Bakersfield, and to display various pro-life messages. Each banner costs us approximately $250. If more people see our banners, more women will know about our services, more of them will let us help them, and more babies will be saved!

We need new client tracking software to help us keep in touch better with women who have decided not to abort their babies. This will cost us approximately $1000, but we know that this will help us not only to better serve women's needs, but to also save more babies' lives.

Our phone book ad results in many calls from abortion-minded women, giving us the opportunity to share the truth of the Gospel of Life. One phone book ad costs us approximately $2500 annually. Due to lack of funds, we are unable to advertise in all of the various books being published in the areas we serve.

No gift is too small (or too large)! Specify the amount of your one-time donation in whole dollars by typing the corresponding number under "Qty" on the checkout form which will appear after you click on the "other" button at left.



Monthly donations

We greatly appreciate our monthly donors, because their support keeps LifeSavers Ministries going all year long. We have new expenses every month, so the consistency of regular donors enables us to cover these ongoing expenses. Before you decide what to give, please ask God if He wants you to become a monthly supporter of LifeSavers Ministries.

The suggested donation amounts below reflect some of the ongoing expenses we face every month. Sadly, when funds are low, we reluctantly find it necessary to cut back on some items such as literature and gifts.

NOTE: At this time, your monthly gifts are NOT automatically repeated by this system. However, if you provide contact information, we can send you a monthly donation reminder if you wish. If you wish for us to enter a new donation for you every month, please provide us your card information by snail mail or call us at 661-323-2229. (For your own protection, we do not recommend sending your card information by an unencrypted e-mail.)

Your $5 donation will help us print small leaflets informing women of the services we provide at our LifeHouse pregnancy help centers.

A cold drink will help someone get through a long, hot day. We have even seen cases where God used a drink of water to save a baby's life!

The expenses for our Bakersfield LifeHouse pregnancy help center total about $100 per day (including the lease payment, utility expenses, etc.)

Our phone book ad costs about $250 per month. But this one ad results in many calls from abortion-minded women who often decide not to abort their babies after talking to us.

Communication is a key to our ministries. Obviously, if God is going to use us to reach people's hearts, we have to be able to communicate with them. We spend about $500 per month on communication (including phone lines for our various locations, Web sites, etc.)

No gift is too small (or too large)! Specify the amount of your one-time donation in whole dollars by typing the corresponding number under "Qty" on the checkout form which will appear after you click on the "other" button at left.



One-time donations to help fund 40 Days for Life / Bakersfield

Our next 40 Days for Life campaign begins on February 17, 2010! If you want to help ensure that this campaign is as successful as possible, we need your help now, before the first day of the campaign! Without financial assistance from people like you, our local campaign will fall far short of its potential. We need to purchase many items before the campaign begins, so early financial support will help us hit the ground running!

You can sponsor a day of 40 Days for Life for only $100! Day sponsors will be listed on our 40 Days for Life website and at the vigil. The finances provided by day sponsors will be used to purchase literature, signs, and other resources for our local campaign.

40 Days for Life yard signs are a key component of the campaign, spreading the good news about God's plan for babies in the womb throughout the community. After working hard to find the best possible price on signs, we now can purchase 150 high-quality corrugated plastic signs and stakes for approximately $500! If we have more signs available and are able to provide them for free as part of the community outreach program and at the prayer vigil, the effectiveness of this campaign will be multiplied exponentially. For best results, we need to purchase all of these signs by February 1, 2010.

We have tried to use a standard big-screen TV to display life-saving videos to women entering the abortion chamber, but these screens are not bright enough to be seen during the daytime. After researching various options, we have found a company which sells large sunlight-viewable video screens, which are designed to be viewed in the daytime. But one of these screens would probably cost us up to $5000. We hope to have a screen in place by February 17, 2010, the beginning of the next 40 Days for Life. The company is willing to send us a demo screen to try it out at no obligation, in addition to giving us a non-profit organization discount, but we first want to ensure that funds are available to pay for the screen. After 40 Days for Life ends, the screen would likely continue to be used by LifeSavers Ministries to save babies and mothers from the horrors of abortion.

No gift is too small (or too large)! Specify the amount of your one-time donation in whole dollars by typing the corresponding number under "Qty" on the checkout form which will appear after you click on the "other" button at left.
