Dear Colleague,

There is a negotiation going on right now for something that sounds like massive hubris and right out of science fiction; The Summit for the Future. Included in the negotiation is a package of documents and the powers that be that want to leave out "the family" altogether and at most include it as a plural so that all manner of families are not excluded. It is all coded language about same-sex and trans and blah blah blah. Pray for the global south and for faith and reason. Iulia-Elena Cazan reports.

There is a nasty committee of expert liars called the Committee on the Elimination of Discrimination against Women. This group of ideological experts insist that the treaty on women's rights includes a right to abortion. It doesn't. They have made this up. This does not stop them from pressuring countries to change their laws on abortion. Rebecca Oas, Ph.D. reports on pressure exerted so far this year.

And here is the weekly report from our colleagues at the International Youth Coalition (IYc).

We have been given a wonderful gift of a matching grant of $20,000. If you donate now, your gift will double! So, please prayerfully help us meet this match!

Spread the word. Be daring. Keep the faith.

Yours sincerely,

Austin Ruse
President
