Updates on a few important Free Speech/Freedom of Religion cases:

Adam Smith-Connor, UK case dealing with an Army veteran who was arrested for a silent prayer offered outside an abortion facility. The charges are certainly absurd, but it does demonstrate the lengths to which the government can go and will go to protect abortion rights. Vice President J.D. Vance mentioned this case in his comments a few weeks ago talking about the importance of defending free speech rights.

Jack Phillips, Colorado baker sued for refusing to bake a cake for a same-sex wedding recently had a major victory at the Colorado Supreme Court following his third lawsuit to try and force him to violate his conscience, this time it was to try to force him to bake a cake for a gender transition.

This article in the New York Post from 2023 revealed that thousands of public schools actually have a policy in place to keep a student’s gender transition a secret from parents. ADF has filed several cases against these school districts on behalf of parents who have a right to know about their child.

Ryan recommends that you pray for the strength and integrity of the church to continue to stand on God’s Word as the Truth and not compromise on these critical issues.
