Please Mark You Calendar for the 2008 Day of the Family some of the confirmed keynote speakers for the day are:
For 10 years pro-life organizations have tried to advance legislation that would ban human cloning and restrict embryonic stem cell research without success. LB 606 does ban cloning and embryonic research with state funds. We Thank God for your prayers. Take a moment to praise God for this incredible victory! LB 606 only allows research to continue on existing human embryonic stem cell lines authorized by President Bush. No state funds or facilities can be used to destroy an embryo for the purpose of research and LB 606 does ban human cloning in public owned facilities. The Bill encourages scientists to pursue research projects using non-embryonic stem cells rather than embryonic stem cells. Up to $500,000 in state tobacco settlement funds will be set aside plus matching funds each year for non-embryonic stem cell research projects with no single institution in the state eligible to receive more than 70 percent of the funds.

Day and Night prayer........ continual prayer..... 24 hours, 7 days a week prayer. God seems to be calling the Church back to a desperate dependency upon Himself. Far from being merely a fad or an emotional response, this type of prayer movement is simply a return to Scripture. God's word is full of both command and example concerning a time to watch and pray. Jeremiah 33:3 "Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know." America is at a spiritual crossroad. Across the nation there is a prayer movement under way. In the vast majority of states there is a House of Prayer. Just across the border in Iowa there are 5 Prayer Centers scattered across the state. The primary location for a unified place of prayer is in Lincoln, the capitol city. It is time for Nebraska to have a 24 hour House of Prayer to intercede for families, government, the state, the nation and the Church. Would you help make this a reality? A House of Prayer in view of the State Capitol will make a difference. Please consider giving toward this special project.
