History – South Niagara Life Ministries

South Niagara Life Ministries (SNLM) was the first of five satellites birthed alongside Niagara Life Centre (NLC) and its founder, Donna Beckett.  NLC’s initial vision was to sustain a nurturing life affirming network throughout the Niagara Region, offering supportive services to assist those with an unplanned pregnancy.  SNLM opened October 18, 1992 at a time when NLC was being blessed and released to self governance, from the once vibrant Turning Point Ministries.  SNLM was established to serve inquirers in southern Niagara without transportation to St. Catharines and whom, in turn, NLC could not reach to serve here.

Today (now that each center serves autonomously of NLC), crisis and practical services have evolved at SNLM to serve in all sorts of life crisis, issues, and problems; to address area gaps/needs for services.  Since SNLM's conception in 1992, requests for help increasingly come from all corners of the region and across our North American border, usually by word of mouth and /or referrals.  All services are free - as sustained by area donations and sponsored events.  Services can be accessed by phoning our Main Office: 905-871-0236 - or phoning/texting: 905-650-2363
