Somalian Muslim man trusts Christ and is kicked out of home
A young Muslim man in Somalia was kicked out of his home recently after converting to Christianity.
The 20-year-old struggled with substance abuse and had not been home to see his Muslim parents for months. That’s when an underground pastor shared the Gospel with him. The young man came to Christ and gained freedom from drug use. After going home, however, his parents drove him away because of his new faith.
The young convert told Morning Star News, “Now that I have loved [Jesus], I do not have a family standing with me. I do no not know what to do. I need prayers.”
Please pray for this brother in Christ in Somalia, Africa. The country is ranked second on the Open Doors’ World Watch List of most difficult places to be a Christian.
In Matthew 19:29, Jesus said, “And everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or wife or children or lands, for My name’s sake, shall receive a hundredfold, and inherit eternal life.”
French Muslim youth vandalizing Catholic churches and assaulting Catholics
The European Conservative reports there have been a string of attacks on churches in France recently which have received little attention from the mainstream media.
In one case, Islamic youths insulted a Catholic priest and threatened to set the church building on fire earlier this month.
Days earlier, another group disrupted a parish meeting in the same area.
Muslim attacks on Catholics have included vandalism, physical assault, and kidnapping.
Supremes split decision result: OK religious charter school unfunded
In the United States, the Supreme Court delivered a split decision last Thursday in a case involving religious education.
Previously, Oklahoma’s charter school board had approved funding for St. Isidore of Seville Catholic Virtual School. It would have been the country’s first publicly-funded religious charter school.
However, Oklahoma’s Supreme Court blocked the school. And the U.S. Supreme Court ruled 4-4 in the case, leaving the lower court ruling in place.
For some reason, conservative Justice Amy Coney Barrett recused herself from the case.
Defense Secretary Hegseth: "King Jesus, we come humbly before You."
U.S. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth led a prayer meeting at the Pentagon last Wednesday. Listen to his opening prayer.
HEGSETH: “If you would bow your head in prayer.
“King Jesus, we come humbly before You, seeking Your face, seeking Your grace, in humble obedience to your law and to Your Word. We come as sinners, saved only by that grace, seeking Your providence in our lives and in our nation.
“Lord God, we ask for the wisdom to see what is right, and in each and every day, in each and every circumstance, the courage to do what is right in obedience to Your will.
“It is in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, that we pray. And all God's people said, Amen. Thank you.”
The voluntary 30-minute prayer meeting was called “Secretary of Defense Christian Prayer & Worship Service.” Hegseth said it may become a monthly event.
Colossians 4:2 says, “Continue earnestly in prayer, being vigilant in it with thanksgiving.”
Planned Parenthood to close 8 abortion mills in Iowa and Minnesota
Last Friday, Planned Parenthood North Central States announced it will close eight locations across Iowa and Minnesota over the next year.
Planned Parenthood blamed the closures on states passing anti-abortion laws as well as a freeze on federal funding for abortion.
The closures will also involve laying off 66 staff members.
CDC no longer recommends COVID-19 shot for pregnant women & kids
The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention will no longer recommend COVID-19 shots for pregnant women and healthy children.
Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. made the announcement yesterday.
KENNEDY: “Hi everybody. I’m Robert F. Kennedy, Jr, your HHS Secretary. And I’m here with NIH Director Dr. Jay Bhattacharya and FDA Commissioner Dr. Marty MaKary.
“I couldn't be more pleased to announce that, as of today, the COVID vaccine for healthy children and healthy pregnant women has been removed from the CDC-recommended immunization schedule. Last year, the Biden administration urged healthy children to get yet another COVID shot, despite the lack of any clinical data to support the repeat booster strategy in children!
BHATTACHARYA: “That ends today. It's common sense and it's good science.”
MAKARY: “There's no evidence healthy kids need it today. And most countries have stopped recommending it for children.”
KENNEDY: “We're now one step closer to realizing President Trump's promise to make America healthy again.”
Lawmakers want to launch “Natural Family Month”
Republican lawmakers in Ohio are considering a bill to celebrate families.
The measure would designate the weeks from Mother’s Day to Father’s Day as “Natural Family Month.” The timeframe goes from the second Sunday in May to the third Sunday in June.
This contrasts with Homosexual/Transgender Pride Month when many celebrate sexually perverted lifestyles in June.
1,500-year-old Christian graves in Israel discovered
And finally, archaeologists recently uncovered 1,500-year-old Christian graves in Israel’s Negev Desert.
The graves reflect Christian burial practices. Inside, archaeologists found rare ebony figurines depicting individuals with African features.
Researchers wrote, “It is possible that the deceased were of ‘Ethiopian’ origin, and that they, or their ancestors, converted to Christianity and moved to the Negev.”
The figurines were made out of ebony wood sourced from India or Sri Lanka and likely carved in Africa before being brought to the Negev.
Researchers believe it is the first time they have discovered such artifacts in the region of Israel and Jordan.
