PRAYER POINTS
The enemy continues to steal, kill, and destroy unborn babies, children, youth, young adults.
May we all be aware of his direly wicked plans, pray, take action, and alert others. Our children depend on us!
We passionately desire they would live out their divine destiny and the abundant life God has for each. - John 10:10
1. ASSEMBLY BILL 229 from CALIFORNIA ASSEMBLYMAN JOE PATTERSON
California doesn't consider sex trafficking or domestic violence a serious enough crime to be listed as a violent crime. AB 229 intends to change this.
According to the author, newly elected Assemblyman Joe Patterson, his bill aims to make these two crimes violent felonies, therefore qualifying them as strikable offenses under California’s Three Strikes Law. This change will allow for harsher penalties for those who engage in felony domestic violence and human trafficking, particularly of a sexual nature against children.
"Tens of thousands of children and adults have been sex trafficked in the Sacramento region since 2015," Patterson said.
"As a father of four young children, I implore you to join me and work together to protect Californians who are most at risk.”
2. SENATE BILL 14 from CALIFORNIA SENATOR SHANNON GROVE
"What is happening in San Francisco right now should be alarming to every American! Pimps following mothers taking their kids to school and
prostitutes walking in broad daylight in traffic have become common scenes in California. My bill, SB 14, would hold perpetrators who are buying and
selling human beings accountable." Every Legislator should agree and pass this Bill!

3. EQUALITY CALIFORNIA - A group that blatantly defies the LORD and His Commands
Founded 20 years ago as an LGBT advocacy group, Equality California has since grown to become a major player in California politics. Fueled by
millions of dollars in donations from corporations like AT&T and Comcast to advocacy groups like Planned Parenthood, the progressive group has
emerged as the savviest user of Sacramento’s legislative system. Together with its Democratic allies, Equality California helps set the legislative
agenda and has pushed policies that help minors get sex changes in secret and let men into women’s prisons (many female prisoners are terrified!).
With Nancy Pelosi cheering them on, the California group now wants to make its mark on the rest of the country. The group lobbies for federal legislation to legalize abortion, grant amnesty to illegal immigrants, and ban guns.
4. CALIFORNIA GOVERNOR CALLS for Boycott against Walgreens... why?!?!
Our Governor continues to make headlines with his wicked agenda to promote murdering babies in the womb and publicly attacks Walgreens because they have chosen not to sell murderous abortion drugs which can cause serious harm to mothers and stop the heartbeat of a helpless baby!
May the Lord deal with Newsom and his pro-death compadres. May the fear of God and an understanding of what actually happens to babies in the womb during an abortion knock him to his knees in repentance, tears, and a turning from death to life!
5. PLEASE CONTINUE TO PRAY FOR OUR SCHOOLS and UNIVERSITIES - Professors, Teachers, Staff, Students.
The enemy, operating through anti-Christ liberals, the LGBTQ agenda, and Planned Parenthood, continues to get a stronghold on our campuses!
Notre Dame was established in 1842 by a Catholic priest, founded on Biblical principles. Yet as of late, they continue to bow to the evil plots of satan. They are allowing a biological woman who had two abortions and has 'transgendered' into a man to speak and promote abortion on their private Christian campus? NO, this has got to stop in Yeshua's-Jesus Name!
Details:

6. PACIFIC JUSTICE INSTITUTE Sends Letter to California School District....
The Letter includes this: “crisis hotlines, which can be accessed by students through posters in restrooms, school hallways, wellness centers, and
counselor referrals are…surveying minors without parent knowledge or consent which violates several laws” and “potentially placing LGBTQ+ students in harms’ way of sexual predators by mixing minors with unvetted random adults in on-line chat rooms without parent knowledge or consent.”
PLEASE READ and be aware:
Law Firm Says CA School District’s Crisis Hotlines Link Kids to Sexual Predators - California Family Council
7. GOD-DESIGNED MARRIAGES are under attack! Please pray.
Democrat Lawmakers Senator Scott Weiner and Assemblyman Evan Low are introducing a constitutional amendment ACA 5 to remove the traditional/ biblical definition of marriage from California’s most authoritative legal document. If approved by the legislature and Governor Newsom, the issues will be placed on the 2024 ballot for voters to decide. NO!

8. MANY ARE SICK and SUFFERING, some needing a healing miracle. God is able! Please pray.
10. PLEASE PRAY FOR ISRAEL, THE PEACE OF JERUSALEM, AND OUR BELOVED PRAYER PARTNERS THERE...

REPORTS on the MARCH FOR LIFE at the CALIFORNIA STATE CAPITOL this Monday!
As most of you know, PRAY CALIFORNIA has an active Pro-Life segment under USSC-approved Pro-Life Attorney Allan Parker, President of The Justice Foundation. www.thejusticefoundation.org
Although I was under severe weather alert/snow and could not attend Monday's March, a few of our partners and friends did.
Here are three reports from the Capitol:
#1. Laura Kitay - Pray California Hospitality Director, Chain Breakers Dance and Flag Team
In attendance were people of all ages and denominations to support the lives of our precious preborn!
About a dozen young counter protestors showed up, blasting loud sirens and shouting things like “Keep your policies off our bodies." Our speakers, loud prayers, and praise songs mostly drowned them out, HalleluYah!
One of the speakers who impacted me the most was a woman whose mom tried to abort her...BUT GOD intercepted and thwarted those evil plans
and the abortion failed.
The most profound thing that she said was "the only medical procedure that fails and is successful to save lives, is an abortion!" She truly is a
“living testimony” and is a sold-out, exuberant advocate for life!
Another woman spoke of how she and her small child became homeless, then shortly after discovered she was pregnant with another child.
She went to Planned Parenthood. Since she was 6 months along, PP referred her to a place in San Francisco but was horrified when told the gruesome details of the abortion procedure and changed her mind on the spot!
She ran into a sidewalk counselor from 'Love Life' who compassionately described the support they could give her – a baby shower, practical resources, plus a few were present for her birthing experience, and best of all, she now has a “real” family support system!
#2. Olga Hermann - The Prayer Council of the United States Pro-Life Director, Life Teams International Director, Pray California Ministry Partner
The March for Life 2023 in Sacramento was amazing with emboldened speakers, many prayers, and awesome worship. The few angry protesters were loud and annoying, but did more to bring us together in a March of unity with an activated pro-life generation! It was a powerful event giving us more hope for our children’s future.
#3. Attorney Theresa Brennan (Director) and Attorney Susan Swift (Assistant Director) of Right to Life League, the first pro-life organization in America founded in Southern California. Susan is holding the sign in front of Capitol and said in part "Following the speaker's presentations, approximately 1,000 joined to march around the capitol to protest California's horrendous abortion expansion laws. It was a beautiful example of life!"
We were blessed to have Right to Life League Director Theresa share at our Annual Pray California Conference last October, and Olga and Laura also share and pray!
THANKFUL to The California Family Council (Jonathan Keller, Greg Burt) along with March for Life for organizing, all who participated boots on the ground and those who supported in prayer from afar!
