How can I pray?
Intercessors for America – they have an action resource and a prayer guide folks can have emailed to them if they give their email address. The prayer guide includes daily calls with each state and the justices they are praying for specifically. They also give a guide to praying for the clerks and the attorneys.
The ACLJ also has numerous videos, and articles about this case including the European stand on abortion (protecting life for the most part and NOT recognizing a right to abortion; and also discussing the Biden administration’s continued support of the abortion industry and support of Planned Parenthood. A great resource on the legal side of things
I read this and it’s done by a Christian ministry but I’d never heard of it before. Their page on the development of the fetus is really good. Can only recommend lightly but it’s useful as a resource to understand where a baby is in development.
