“Our once great western Christian civilization is dying. If this matters to followers of Jesus Christ, then we must set aside our denominational differences and work together to strengthen the things that remain and reclaim what has been lost. Evangelicals and Catholics must stand together to re-establish that former Christian culture and moral consensus. We have the numbers and the organization but the question is this: Do we have the will to win this present spiritual battle for Jesus Christ against secularism? Will we prayerfully and cooperatively work toward a new Christian spiritual revival ― or will we choose to hunker down in our churches and denominationalisms and watch everything sink into the spiritual and moral abyss of a New Dark Age?” - Mark Davis Pickup

PRESIDENT TRUMP'S LIFE-AFFIRMING FIRST DAY

President Trump signs
executive order reinstating the
Mexico City Policy
As a North American advocate for Life & disability issues, I was thrilled to learn President Trump issued an executive order on his first day in Office to reinstated the Mexico City Policy. 

 This policy requires international non-governmental organizations (NGOs) to agree to not promote or provide abortions, in order to be eligible for US funding. 

 The Mexico City Policy was put in place in 1984 by President Reagan. It was successful implemented by the pro-Life Republican Administrations of Presidents H.W. Bush and George W. Bush rescinded by pro-abortion Democratic Presidents Clinton and Obama. Thanks to President Trump the policy is rightfully back in place. 

 In a January 23rd 2017 press release by Republican Congressman Chris Smith (New Jersey) stated,
Congressman
Chris Smith
"Without this protection in place [the Mexico City Policy] foreign NGOs receiving u.S. government funds promote abortion throughout the world with the imprimatur of the United States, ... Organizations like Marie Stopes International and the International Planned Parenthood Federation have reported performing over 1 million abortions annually. Pro-abortion NGOs also set up additional projects oversees seeking to topple pro-Life laws, imposing a new colonialism that fails to respect life-affirming cultures."

 I hope and pray that America is emerging from the dark years of Barack Obama's Presidency into new sunlit uplands where every human life is protected an cherished from conception to natural death and every state and stage between those two points. God bless America.
