There are many ways to be a champion for life, and one of them is providing a woman in an unplanned pregnancy a “window” into the world of the child she is carrying. This is the intent of the Psalm 139 Project –to aid pregnancy resource centers in securing ultrasound machines.

Ultrasound Machine Placements

Your generosity is making a huge difference in this world. Use this map to see where we have placed ultrasound machines through your giving.

Most women in an unplanned pregnancy who are given a glimpse of the life within them choose life.

However, this is only possible when women can go to a pregnancy center with an ultrasound machine. Sonogram machines are expensive, costing tens of thousands of dollars. Many pregnancy resource centers operate on a tight budget and the Psalm 139 Project is pleased to partner with these centers to provide equipment or cover expenses for training medical staff to receive the certification to perform ultrasound scans.

“As a pastor in a state where abortion is tragically so readily available, I’m thrilled that the ERLC’s Psalm 139 Project has placed an ultrasound machine in our local pregnancy resource center. It’s especially encouraging that Southern Baptist brothers and sisters in faraway places have teamed up to make this possible.”

LIVES SAVED

Saving Lives in 2025

The ERLC’s Psalm 139 Project helps pregnancy centers minister to abortion-vulnerable women by providing ultrasound equipment and medical staff training to operate these life-saving machines.

This gives pregnancy centers across our nation and beyond with a valuable tool to give a woman in an unplanned pregnancy a “window” into the world of the child she is carrying.

Simply put, it’s all about saving lives. Together, we have the amazing opportunity to support mothers, save precious babies, and leave a legacy of life for generations to come.
