Homosexual family law (OneNewsNow.com)

The story is both heartbreaking and infuriating. Peter Sprigg of the Family Research Council recently wrote a column telling this painful account that is being completely and totally ignored by the mainstream press.

Lisa Miller, a Virginia woman, is the mother of a beautiful seven-year-old girl named Isabella. Isabella was the product of artificial insemination, meaning that her biological father was an anonymous sperm donor, making Lisa her only known biological parent.

At the time Lisa had Isabella conceived in her womb, she was practicing homosexuality with a woman named Janet Jenkins. For the first year of Isabella's life, Lisa and Janet maintained a relationship, even traveling to Vermont to obtain the legal recognition known as a "civil union." As time went by, however, Lisa began to realize that her effort to find fulfillment in sexual depravity wasn't working. She began to attend a Christian church again and soon decided to end the relationship. She and her biological daughter then moved back to Virginia where Lisa has raised her for the last six years.

We need to pray for Lisa and little Isabella! What is happening now is just wrong!

Vote and stay sought in DC marriage debacle (OneNewsNow.com)

The Alliance Defense Fund is appealing the latest pronouncement denying voters in Washington, DC, the opportunity to vote to overturn a decision by the city council to approve homosexual "marriage."

The DC Board of Elections and Ethics has repeatedly denied voters' requests for the election. In a brief statement released on Thursday, the Board simply stated its opinion that the Referendum on the Religious Freedom and Civil Marriage Equality Amendment Act of 2009 is "an improper subject" for referendum in the District. The Board said it is required to "refuse to accept referendum measures that would authorize discrimination that is prohibited un the [DC] Human Rights Act."

Pastor: Threats against Rifqa serious (OneNewsNow.com)

A former Muslim who is now a Christian pastor is convinced that 17-year-old Christian convert Rifqa Bary, if returned to her parent's custody, would be on the first plane back to her native Sri Lanka.

OneNewsNow recently reported the teenager's parents have backed out of an agreement that would have allowed the teenager to remain in foster care until her 18th birthday in August. But the parents now want a trial in Franklin County Juvenile Court in order to determine where she should live.

In a highly publicized custody case, Rifqa ran away to Florida last summer because she feared her father would either harm or kill her for converting from Islam.





We need to continue to pray for Rifqa
