Albuquerque, NM- Each week during this prayer and fasting campaign the Lord has shown us how intimately involved He is in our ministry and how He can accomplish His will through all of our humble sacrifices. This past Thursday we received confirmation from the New Mexico Medical Board (NMMB) that they have launched an investigation into the death of a local Albuquerque woman who died on February 4, 2017 as a result of complications suffered during a late term abortion performed by Curtis Boyd. The NMMB has the authority to revoke Curtis Boyd’s New Mexico medical license, stopping him from performing abortions permanently!

This could not be more timely, as pressure mounts against Curtis Boyd not only in New Mexico but also in Dallas, Texas where it all began. The Dallas federal court case known as Roe v. Wade brought us abortion on demand. Dallas is also home to Curtis Boyd’s other abortion mill that he opened and operated illegally PRIOR to the 1973 Supreme court ruling! This week, Tara is in Dallas, Texas with Survivors of the Abortion Holocaust, helping to train the next generation to take ownership and lead the charge to end abortion in America- in the very city that this injustice began.

This week’s prayer and fasting campaign extends from New Mexico into Texas, the epicenter of legalized child killing in America and of Curtis Boyd’s child killing empire!
Please join us as we continue to seek the Lord through prayer and fasting asking Him to break the strongholds that are keeping abortion in New Mexico. We are stronger together in this battle for life!
This week’s scripture reading is from, Joel 2:12
“Even now,” declares the LORD, “return to me with all your heart, with fasting and weeping and mourning.”
Over the next two weeks please join us as we continue to faithfully pray and fast to fight this battle spiritually to end all abortions in New Mexico, we are trusting and believing that the Lord is already using this united effort to accomplish His will for our state.
Each Wednesday we will send you a passage of scripture to pray and meditate on.
