"Only with prayer—prayer that storms the heavens for justice and mercy, prayer that cleanses our hearts and souls—will the culture of death that surrounds us today be replaced with a culture of life."

The “See Baby Grow” app developed by the Education and Resource Fund (ERF) features an extraordinary series of pregnancy-related science documentaries that illustrate the biology of prenatal development using advanced medical imaging technologies and procedures. This enables us to visualize these babies, alive in the uterus, with unprecedented clarity. The app also has a “pregnancy tracker” for expectant moms, videos geared specifically for children, public service announcements such as the negative impact of smoking and drinking on the unborn child, the scientific evidence of fetal pain and much, much more! Some content has been translated into 92 different languages and has been viewed over 10 million times by viewers in 173 countries. The app is available for both Android and Apple.
