2. NC VALUES: Our NC
Federal Endorsements
Yesterday we shared with you our endorsements for the 2022 NC
Federal races.
With the pressure of the Biden Administration’s radical
agenda, we need representatives who will stand strong for North
Carolina families and our country. If you look forward to a principled
group of legislators who can help create a pro-values majority in
Congress that will protect life, the family, and religious freedom,
would you consider supporting these fine candidates?
3. WCCB CHARLOTTE:
Abortion-Rights Group Leader Lends Support to NC
Candidates
“Tami Fitzgerald, executive director of the socially
conservative North Carolina Values Coalition, separately accused the
legislative candidates at Tuesday’s event of extreme views on
abortion, particularly on permitting late-term abortions.
The pro-abortion group Lillian’s List, which works to get
pro-choice ‘women elected in North Carolina, has endorsed 25
legislative candidates. And its political action committee and members
have contributed more than $150,000 to campaigns, group Executive
Director Sarah Preston said.’
Over the past couple weeks, we have announced our
endorsements of 80 judicial and legislative state and federal
candidates.”

4. DAILY SIGNAL: FBI Agents Raid
Home, Arrest Pro-Life Advocate in Front of Wife and Children
“Mark Houck, a pro-life advocate and father of seven, woke up
Friday morning to a team of FBI agents raiding his home in
Kintnersville, Pennsylvania. Houck’s wife, Ryan-Marie, told Life Site
News that 25-30 FBI agents entered their home around 7 a.m.
‘The kids were all just screaming. It was all just very scary
and traumatic,’ Ryan-Marie Houck told Life Site News about her
husband’s arrest, which she and her children witnessed. She says her
husband pleaded with the FBI agents to be calm, referencing the
couple’s seven children.“
5. CAMPUS REFORM: Campbell
University reverses course on blocking pro-life event
“Campbell University, a private Christian school in North
Carolina, will allegedly now allow its Students for Life chapter
members to counsel women outside of abortion clinics after originally
denying the request.”
 WEEKLY PRAYER: SOCIETY
Heavenly Father, we ask Your forgiveness and to seek Your
direction and guidance. We know Your Word says, ‘Woe to those who call
evil good,’ but that is exactly what we have done. We have lost our
spiritual equilibrium and reversed our values. We confess: We have
ridiculed the absolute Truth of Your Word and called it pluralism. We
have worshipped other gods and called it multiculturalism. We have
endorsed perversion and called it alternative lifestyle. We have
exploited the poor and called it the lottery. We have rewarded
laziness and called it welfare. We have killed our unborn and called
it choice. We have neglected to discipline our children and called it
building self-esteem. We have abused power and called it politics. We
have coveted our neighbor’s possessions and called it ambition. We
have polluted the air with profanity and pornography and called it
freedom of expression. We have ridiculed the time-honored values of
our forefathers and called it enlightenment. Search us, oh God, and
know our hearts; cleanse us from every sin and set us free. In the
name of Your Son, the living Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen.
Amen
