Axia Mobile Pregnancy Resource Center Admin Assistant and Patient Advocate

**Our Story**

In 1982, YWAM missionary and visionary leader,  Beverly Kline, met a Tyler teenager who was fearful that she might be pregnant.  In seeking help for this young lady, Bev was directed by the health department to an 800 number for a free pregnancy test. Bev soon learned that the free test was provided by a Dallas abortion clinic, which utilized a local Tyler laboratory, that ultimately provided the lead for an abortion sale.  

Little did anyone know, that that one inquiry would result in closing the door to that clinic’s abortion access in Tyler! Since then, more than 40,000 free tests have been administered by Tyler’s Living Alternatives Pregnancy Resource Center.  Today, in addition to pregnancy testing, the Center also performs free sonograms which drastically increases the survival rate of the unborn child. The Center’s Building Blocks program continues to minister to the women after a confirmed pregnancy with individual parent mentoring, childbirth education and doula services, to ensure the safe arrival of the baby. 

Fatherheart Maternity Home has provided more than 600 young women safe haven to mend the past and move into the future with a renewed hope. Babies are a great start to a new beginning. For many of the girls, a new beginning starts with an adoptive family for her baby, facilitated by the ministry’s Loving Alternative Adoption Agency.  More than 200 birthmothers have made the loving and sacrificial choice to prepare an adoption plan, and placed their precious baby into the arms of trusted adoptive parents. 

Loving Alternatives was also honored to utilize its agency license for a season, by helping the Smith County Family Court find Christian families for 100 children who were waiting in foster homes for an adoption. This ministry is called ForThe1.

Statistics tell us that many girls who age out of the Foster system are at a higher risk for trafficking and unplanned pregnancies. KEEPS Boutique combats these statistics by providing a unique shopping experience for teen girls in the State foster care system. This free shopping experience enables personal connection through “girls’ nights out” events, and a summer camp experience. Through these brief but impacting encounters the girls experience the touch of the Father’s love as the staff welcome them with warm embraces.  

The flagship of all the Living Alternatives ministries is the Pregnancy Resource Center.  The PRC is the where the heartbeat of Living Alternatives emanates from, and this heart is ENLARGING.  In partnership with the community, 1.2 million dollars was raised for a state-of-the-art facility called The AXIA Center that allowed Living Alternatives to reach more women in even more effective ways. Free pregnancy testing and sonograms are tools utilized to reach the target audience of abortion-vulnerable women with hope – and help – to make life changing decisions for their unborn child and their future.

We provide shelter, food, and clothing in a safe, healthy, Christian environment while exposing people to the Gospel of Jesus Christ and making them aware of community resources.

The goal for each guest is to identify the issue(s) that have created the state of homelessness and begin to address those issues, so they can transition into a long-term solution.

Se anima a nuestros huéspedes a unirse a los programas de recuperación a largo plazo de la Misión para llegar a las causas fundamentales de su falta de vivienda y poder ponerle fin de forma permanente.

**Loving Others as Christ Commanded**

In 1955 the Hiway 80 Rescue Mission was established to provide food and shelter, and to share the gospel with homeless men in Longview. For over 65 years God has helped us grow this ministry to include an emergency shelter for women and families in Longview as well as two campuses in Tyler.

We feature Christ-centered recovery programs, and community outreach services. Through the New Creation Discipleship program, we teach people about Christ’s love and commands, arming them with the tools they need to overcome addictions, abusive situations, and many other difficulties they face in life. After completing the 10-month program, services are provided to assist them with achieving self-sufficiency.

Through Case Management, we assist homeless men and women in identifying and overcoming the obstacles that are keeping them in homelessness. Our case management team works with the individuals to create a plan to address those obstacles, secure and budget an income and locate healthy and appropriate housing.

What started in one, small building now spans 4 campuses in Longview and Tyler.

**MEET CASSANDRA**
I empower Black women to become their best selves. Through my work as a Christian Transformation Agent, speaker, and best-selling author, my mission is to guide and empower Black women to excel in their personal and professional life. I strive to revolutionize self-care by educating women to embrace holistic methods — enhancing their physical, emotional, and spiritual health.

Women working in stressful corporate environments or who manage teams dedicate so much of their energy towards uplifting others that they lose themselves in the process. My life’s calling is to partner with women like you to help manage feelings of burnout, stress, and emotional trauma that are holding you back from feeling your best.

My path as a coach started as a personal journey. I was diagnosed with systemic lupus as well as other autoimmune conditions in 2014. With a Master’s Degree in Gerontology and ten years of experience, my illness would make me a student, yet again. Becoming frustrated with my lupus motivated me to take courses in the health and wellness space and carefully apply what I learned to my own life to help combat my illness. This practice was life-altering. I have now lived in remission from systemic lupus for a continuation of seven years.


I believe wellness is the power to live out your mission in the comfort of a healthy mind and body. Living a holistic path has transformed my sense of well-being. Through wellness and life coaching, we can create balance together so that you become your best, healthiest self — eliminating chronic stress and overwhelm and transforming your life.

When a woman truly loves herself, she knows her worth and will begin manifesting her value in the world.

How wonderful would it be if no one was homeless? Unfortunately, not only are people homeless, but the number of homeless individuals is increasing.

Because of the need, Hiway 80 Rescue Mission is always looking to expand its facilities. In Tyler, our newest facility is Triumph Village, opened in 2018. We offer the New Creation Discipleship Program for men there now. In the future we plan to add a commercial sized kitchen, dining hall, classroom space, laundry and a chapel. That will take your support. So, please consider supporting our mission with your generous donations.

The New Creation Program is the opportunity for a new start in life for men whose lives have been derailed by alcohol abuse, drug abuse, or other destructive behaviors. 

Men in the New Creation Program are in Bible Study classes every day where they learn how to make right choices for their lives and surrender their lives to God.  Life skills classes and recovery classes are provided to help program men move forward.  Program men are also involved in daily work therapy and assignments.  These chores help men learn the responsibility and self-discipline necessary for long term growth. They are required to attend daily devotionals and memorize scripture on a weekly basis.  Each man also meets with a case manager once a week.  The case management meetings provide the opportunity for counseling, self-examination, and accountability.

Men in the program are also required to connect with a local church and local recovery group.  This helps men to begin to develop a spiritual foundation outside of the Mission. 

Twice a year, the Mission holds a graduation service for the men who have completed the New Creation Program.  For all of them, it is a great accomplishment.  Some have gone on to college, obtained full time employment and restored relationships with family members.

Hiway 80 Rescue Mission provides services that make a real difference in the lives of the men in our community who are in need of help.

Qué maravilloso sería si nadie estuviera sin hogar. Desafortunadamente, no solo hay personas sin hogar, sino que el número de individuos sin hogar está aumentando.

Debido a la necesidad, la Misión de Rescate Hiway 80 siempre está buscando expandir sus instalaciones. En Tyler, nuestra instalación más nueva es Triumph Village, abierta en 2018. Ofrecemos el Programa de Discipulado Nueva Creación para hombres allí ahora. En el futuro planeamos agregar una cocina de tamaño comercial, comedor, espacio para aulas, lavandería y una capilla. Eso requerirá su apoyo. Por favor, considere apoyar nuestra misión con sus generosas donaciones.

El Programa Nueva Creación es la oportunidad de un nuevo comienzo en la vida para hombres cuyas vidas han sido desviadas por el abuso de alcohol, abuso de drogas u otros comportamientos destructivos.

Los hombres en el Programa Nueva Creación están en clases de estudio de la Biblia todos los días donde aprenden a tomar decisiones correctas para sus vidas y entregan sus vidas a Dios. Se ofrecen clases de habilidades para la vida y clases de recuperación para ayudar a los hombres del programa a avanzar. Los hombres del programa también participan en terapia y asignaciones de trabajo diarias. Estas tareas ayudan a los hombres a aprender la responsabilidad y autodisciplina necesarias para un crecimiento a largo plazo. Se les exige asistir a devocionales diarios y memorizar escrituras semanalmente. Cada hombre también se reúne con un administrador de casos una vez a la semana. Las reuniones de administración de casos brindan la oportunidad de asesoramiento, autoexamen y responsabilidad.

También se requiere que los hombres del programa se conecten con una iglesia local y un grupo de recuperación local. Esto ayuda a los hombres a comenzar a desarrollar una base espiritual fuera de la Misión.

Dos veces al año, la Misión realiza un servicio de graduación para los hombres que han completado el Programa Nueva Creación. Para todos ellos, es un gran logro. Algunos han continuado sus estudios universitarios, obtenido empleo a tiempo completo y restaurado relaciones con miembros de la familia.

La Misión de Rescate Hiway 80 brinda servicios que marcan una verdadera diferencia en la vida de los hombres de nuestra comunidad que necesitan ayuda.
