Christians, Muslims, and Jews are standing with nuns in New York and asking the Supreme Court to protect religious freedom.
From CBN. A coalition of Christians, Muslims, Jews, legal scholars and 20 states are joining with a group of New York nuns in asking the U.S. Supreme Court to protect their rights to teach and serve in their communities without being forced to fund abortions.
Connect with others in your state in prayer.
As CBN News has reported, the Sisterhood of Saint Mary along with a diverse coalition of Anglican and Catholic nuns, Catholic dioceses, Christian churches, and faith-based social ministries sued New York after it mandated that they cover abortion in their employee health insurance plans in violation of their religious beliefs. …
In Diocese of Albany v. Harris, the group and other faith-based groups sued the state for religious protections, but New York refused to protect the religious organizations.
In 2021, Becket, Jones Day, and Tobin and Dempf, LLP, asked the Supreme Court to intervene.
The high court reversed the New York ruling …
But so far, New York state courts have ignored the order, according to Becket. …
Now a coalition of Muslims, Jews, Christians; 20 states including Florida, Georgia and Texas; and legal scholars have joined the fight in asking the Supreme Court to block the NY abortion mandate. …
The groups who have joined in the legal fight explain that protecting religious freedom is especially critical for minority faiths. Notre Dame’s Religious Liberty Clinic shows how New York’s law will hurt vulnerable communities by shutting down the religious ministries that serve them. …
The Supreme Court will consider whether to hear the case later this fall.

Psalm 145, “I Will Exalt You, My God and King” https://biblehub.com/psalms/145.htm
Dear Lord and God Almighty, You uphold all who are falling and raise up all who are bowed down. You open Your hand and satisfy the desire of every living thing. You are righteous in all Your ways and kind in all Your works. We are calling You to work Truth into the hearts of each justices to fulfill the desire of all who fear You. Please preserve the lives of the innocent and destroy the plans of the wicked. I praise the Name of Jesus Christ over a victory for life as I bless Your Holy Name forever and ever. Amen
Lord, we know you came to bring Life, and it is precious to you. We ask you now to protect those who work to promote Life. Allow the Supreme Court to enshrine religious freedom and protection from state laws that violate their beliefs rooted in your Word. Amen
Amen to Maggie’s prayer Lord…it is all about Life and as You came to give us Life, remind the justices that Your court is Supreme!
