CEC For Life Co-Hosts Prayer Rally at the Supreme Court

On Saturday, October 2nd, CEC For Life invites you to join the Purple Sash Revolution for a powerful prayer rally at the Supreme Court to end abortion and dismantle Roe!

When the Supreme Court agreed to hear Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, they agreed to hear the most important abortion case since Roe vs. Wade in 1973.   A victory in Dobbs v. Jackson would be a major step in dismantling Roe and bringing an end to abortion violence.  It is critical that we not be indifferent and silent regarding Dobbs as many were when Roe was decided. If we do not engage, it could add DECADES in our fight to end abortion violence.  Join Purple Sash Revolution for a powerful prayer and worship rally at the Supreme Court on Saturday, October 2, from 2 – 4 p.m. This is just two days before the Supreme Court begins their new session in which the justices will hear Dobbs v. Jackson.
We invite you to boldly stand with national pro-life and Christian leaders against the evil of abortion in an attitude of prayer and praise. Through prayer we can see God shape history and end abortion.  Click the link to RSVP on Facebook or click HERE  for additional information.

The Patriarch Launches a New Website

This week, Archbishop Craig Bates, the Patriarch of the International Communion of the Charismatic Episcopal Church (ICCEC) officially launched a brand new website.  BishopBatesCEC.org is the new address for Abp. Bates’ blog and media home.  During the pandemic lockdown, hundreds of people throughout the world followed Abp. Bates as he reflected on the daily Gospel readings.  As circumstances evolved, the Archbishop felt led to take a hiatus from those daily meditations and evaluated how to continue that ministry most effectively.  With the launch of BishopBatesCEC.org, the Patriarch is excited to be able to resume reaching out and ministering to a broader, online community.  The design team is working to develop more content and looks forward to adding more content on a regular basis as they build this exciting new platform.  Be sure to visit the Patriarch’s new website, watch all of his videos, and then subscribe so that you never miss the Archbishop’s new videos.

And let light perpetual shine upon her.

Through the mercy of God, rest in peace.  Amen.
