After watching our favorite Christian bands… Tara simply took information at a pro-life booth and the rest is history!  Driving back to Flagstaff, AZ from San Diego, California our hearts were penetrated with the reality of the Abortion Holocaust that has taken 1/3rd of our generation! We prayed a simple prayer, “Lord we commit our lives to your service to work to end this grave injustice until you call us home with you,…

Dear Friends,  We laid it all on the line for the babies and against the seemingly insurmountable odds in New Mexico this legislative session. With the democratic party in total control of both chambers of the legislature and the power to sign any law into effect with newly elected governor, Michelle Lujan Grisham, a radically pro-abortion democrat, we knew that if there was to be any hope of opposing their PRO-DEATH AGENDA, it was vital to activate the voice of the people of New Mexico and reach the hearts of the Catholic Democrats and urge them to vote their faith. In the end, God heard the prayers of many and…
