A Texas Pro-Life Mission to the Supreme Court

By Rod Anderson, CP Cartoonist Friday, February 12, 2016

This week, a coalition of pro-life and faith-based groups — most based in Texas — are coming together under the banner Texas Loves Life. We're not doing it for press conferences, lobbying or other common reasons. The coalition Texas Loves Life exists solely to pray for the Supreme Court, believing for life to be upheld as the court considers an important Texas pro-life law in the current session.

Carol Everett, founder of The Heidi Group based in Round Rock, Texas, addressed pro-life faith leaders on our first conference call (recording now online) this past Monday.

"We recently surveyed our network of 183 life-affirming pregnancy centers in Texas, who reported increases as high as 300 percent of women using our ultrasound and other services," said Everett.

"Working from that detailed survey, we estimate at least 40,000 lives have been saved in Texas since HB 2 was enacted in 2013," she concluded.

Carol Everett then led us in prayer for the women her team serves and for life to be upheld in this case.

Prayer conference calls will continue monthly. In addition, starting February 10 and going to March 20, team members from Bound4LIFE, David's Tent DC and 40 Days for Life will be praying in front of the U.S. Supreme Court for 40 days straight.
