OUR MOTIVATION
All Girls Allowed is motivated by the love of Jesus Christ, who—by serving the least of us—set us an example that we should rescue the least of the least, the girl babies and their mothers, from death and injustice. We draw inspiration from Jesus’ countercultural concern and affection for women and children, and we hope likewise to restore to them the life, value and dignity that they deserve as fellow image-bearers of God. The following two Scriptures have been of particular inspiration for our work:
So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them. –Genesis 1:27
Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.” -Matthew 19:14
In all that we do, we seek to give God thanksgiving and praise for his work of redemption among his people. In keeping with Jesus’ example of unconditional love, the All Girls Allowed movement includes and serves all people regardless of nationality, religion, race, ethnicity, gender, or political affiliation.
