Unite at the Post-Roe Summit!
Let's Pray and Prepare to be Abortion-Free!
Greetings!

This summer the U.S. Supreme Court is slated to decide the high profile case Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health, which has the potential to overturn or modify Roe v. Wade. We have been working tirelessly to protect ALL babies since 1970, and we are excited that the high court could give us the ability to protect unborn babies from the violence of abortion.

In preparation for this historic moment, we are hosting the Post-Roe Louisiana Summit on June 3-4th in Baton Rouge. We believe that legal protection for unborn babies is the first step to becoming truly abortion-free, and we must work together to support mothers and shift our pro-abortion culture. We will also gather to pray for the Supreme Court and an end to abortion.

Here's the schedule...

  • Friday June 3 at 7 PM: Prayer Vigil for Life at Delta Abortion Facility
  • Saturday June 4 8 AM: Prayer Breakfast at Bethany Church
  • Saturday June 4 9:30 AM: Summit Conference at Bethany Church

At our summit, we will cover...

  • The Supreme Court, What Could Happen, and Our Response
  • Addressing Post-Roe Black Market Abortions
  • Public and Private Social Services for Mothers in Need
  • Promoting and Supporting Adoption and Foster Care
  • Church Ministry for Mothers in Crisis Pregnancies
  • Grassroots Pro-Life Action and more!

Even if the Court doesn't overturn Roe, our summit will strengthen pro-life efforts to save lives and help moms! We invite the entire state to join us. Register today

For a Pro-Life Louisiana,

Thank You Sandy Cunningham and Jensen Young!
At the end of March, our Communications Director Sandy Cunningham departed our staff to pursue other opportunities. We are thankful for her eight years of service to unborn babies, their mothers, and the entire pro-life cause! Her work advanced our Advertise for Life Initiative, Choose Life License Plate program, and much much more. Read more about her service.

We also bid farewell to Jenson Young, our interim director for North Louisiana. He initially joined our team to assist during the Louisiana State Fair in October. He generously continued through March and was instrumental in helping us with our North Louisiana Life Marches, Life Chains, and expanding our adoption program.
Adoption Takes Center Stage at State Capitol
The Adoption Education Expansion Act, HB 274, went before the House Education Committee last week and passed without objection.

If passed, HB 274 will expand current adoption education requirements by providing public high school students information on modern adoption, the reasons why adoption is preferable to abortion, and more.

The Texas Heartbeat Bill remains in effect, and we are teaming with donors and volunteers to place billboards like this on important stretches of intrstate as women from Texas travel to Louisiana seeking abortion.
