Dear Friends,
Albuquerque, NM- 2017 has come and gone so quickly. It has been a very busy year! We have so much to thank the Lord for, especially the reinforcements He has sent our way from Congressman Steve Pearce and President Trump’s administration. Our prayer for 2018 is that we will begin to see fruit after 7 years of ministry and that life will begin to spring forth from this desert land (Isa. 32:15). Here is a glimpse of all that happened in our ministry this past year. God’s blessings to you and your family in 2018.
#1- BABIES BORN
We were blessed to see two babies who were born because of God’s faithfulness and our outreach to abortion minded women over the years. The Lord knows how many more are alive today. Read more here: She Hitchhiked…?
#2- FBI REVIEW
Two years after Tara filed a complaint with the New Mexico Attorney General, Congressman Steve Pearce confirmed that UNM and SWO are now under review by the FBI for their use of aborted baby remains. Read more here: FBI REVIEWS CRIMINAL REFERRALS

#5- COLLABORATION
We partnered with Priests for Life to expose Late Term Abortion Across America. Together we released 19 undercover calls, documenting abortion mills who readily perform abortions on healthy mothers carrying healthy babies after 20 weeks of pregnancy. Our goal is for a federal law to be passed to end late term abortion nationwide. The House has already done so, the Senate will be voting on it in January 2018.

#6- 6 PART SERIES
We compiled a 6 part series documenting the Abortion Landscape shift in NM since 2010. This highlighted how the abortion cartel is in full retreat and that their plans of expansion throughout NM have been stifled. We have a watchful eye on the entire state’s abortion facilities and have plans to continue working to systematically see that these facilities close down. until NM is abortion free.

#10- CAMPAIGN ENDS
Our call to leaders is, “Stand up for the babies and we will stand down.” Early in 2017 we felt that state leaders were starting to stand up… from the Archbishop to state legislators. So we wrapped up Protest ABQ and shifted to Abortion Free New Mexico (AFNM).

The abortion cartel in New Mexico has many weaknesses which we will hone in on in the New Year, 2018…
Some of what we will be doing includes:
–Educational church outreach to inspire and equip the churches to stand for life.
– Bringing accountability and exposure to key entities that are keeping abortion in New Mexico.
– A public awareness campaign in eastern New Mexico to encourage Abortionist Franz Theard to close his abortion business. And more…
Please Pray With us For New Mexico in 2018
- Strongholds to be broken that are keeping abortion in New Mexico.
- Babies lives to be saved as abortion facilities close down in New Mexico.
- Pro-Life leaders to be appointed throughout the state and that they make every effort to protect the babies.
