Prayers for Texas

Join us in prayer for the community of Uvalde, Texas in the aftermath of a tragic shooting that claimed the lives of at least 19 children and two teachers. Many families are suffering as they mourn the loss of their loved ones. Take a moment today to pray for them.

Memorial Day Weekend

CTV is committed to upholding the values that our country was founded on. Memorial Day is a big part of that. We ought to remember and honor the brave men and women who have lost their lives to defend our country. It's a powerful reminder that freedom comes at a price.

Church Leader Lunch and Briefing

Do you know church leaders in the Kent County area? We'd love to have them join us! This is the first of several we'll be hosting throughout the state.

Pastors and church leaders, we welcome you to join us for a lunch and briefing with MI Supreme Court Justice, Brian Zahra. He'll be sharing his unique perspective and valuable insight as you navigate the critical issues of our times.

CTV believes that responsible Christian citizenship includes participation in the public conversation about issues important to the faith community to positively influence decisions affecting every aspect of our lives.

Pro-Life Update

Don't Sign This Pro-Abortion Petition!

Planned Parenthood and the ACLU have launched a petition drive to enshrine abortion in our State Constitution. Remember, if you are approached to sign a "Michigan Right to Reproductive Freedom Initiative," don't do it! This poorly named initiative is designed to legalize abortion in the event that Roe v. Wade is struck down in the coming months.

Did you know? This amendment would repeal Michigan's partial-birth abortion ban and the Born Alive Infant Protection Act. It also allows for late-term abortions.

This goes much further than any previous pro-abortion law or policy, allowing for nearly unrestricted abortion access. This "anything-goes" effort must be stopped if we are to save the lives of tens of thousands of Michigan babies every year.

The battle lines are drawn. If Planned Parenthood's ballot initiative is successful, the issue will be in the hands of Michigan voters in November. Will we choose life, or will we choose death? Everyone who upholds the sanctity of life should go to the polls and vote their values! Staying home is not an option this year!

CTV is a coalition partner with Right to Life and others to fight for the women and children in our state—find out more by visiting: supportmiwomenandchildren.org.

Thank You!

Thank you to everyone who has helped sign and circulate the Let MI Kids Learn and Secure MI Vote ballot initiatives. Your hard work matters! Signatures are now being counted and we will continue to keep you updated as results come in after the end of May. Reach out to us with any questions.
