Washington wants to fund IVF for LGBT military “partners,” surrogates
PLUS: Missionaries in Haiti plead for prayers + the UK has halts puberty blockers for kids
A bill that would broadly authorize funding for IVF and adoption services for members of the military and their extramarital “partners” narrowly missed being pushed through a Senate committee without debate or a stated budget.
Earlier this week, Republican Senator James Lankford of Oklahoma refused to give the required necessary consent to the Veteran Families Health Services Act, a bill that would have broadly expanded family planning for LGBT services members, significant others, and gestational surrogates.
Or, as LifeNews astutely notes, rather than encouraging family formation, the bill would “explicitly promotes the artificial creation of children outside of marriage.”
As the Veteran Families Health Services Act would extend IVF services to military members “without regard to … sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, or marital status,” it would employ these services to “directly undermine the family and use taxpayer funding to create, preserve, implant, and destroy embryonic human life,” the pro-life platform’s Steven Ertelt writes.
“It even goes so far as to reimburse service members when they buy someone else’s egg or sperm. All under the alphabet soup banner of the rainbow flag,” he adds.
Lankford, for his part, took issue with the means through which the Democrats tried to push the bill through the committee, bypassing debate, as well its concerningly broad terms and lack of defined cost.
"It includes things like assisted reproductive technology, fertility treatments," he said. "It leaves the door open for future definitions for gene editing or for cloning and leaves us to the discretion of the secretary, whoever the secretary may be in the future."
We cannot overlook the thinly-veiled agenda to use the military to normalize a radical social agenda that deliberately manufactures and places children outside of the biological family unit — a real-world, present-day manifestation of Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World.
The Biden administration will go down in history for its attempt to weaponize our armed services — and tax dollars — to this end. The question is, will they be successful? Or will Americans of faith rise up and resist this agenda with the weapons of spiritual warfare and peaceful, bold public discourse?
You decide.

The family of an American missionary trapped in Haiti amid violent unrest with four of her adopted children is pleading for prayer as the woman claims the U.S. Embassy hasn’t been much help.
Earlier this week, Haiti’s Prime Minister Ariel Henry resigned amid widespread unrest in the country, leaving them among those stranded in the collapsing nation.
Port-au-Prince has been in chaos since gangsters broke into two major prisons, releasing thousands of prisoners and assuming control of 80% of the city.
According to a Facebook post from a family member of Ryan and Jill Dolan, who run an orphanage in Haiti, the mother and four of their adopted children have been holed up in a makeshift hotel.
“My nephew Ryan and his wife Jill are asking for urgent prayer for Jill and four of their adopted teenage kids who were on their way to their biological daughter Sarah’s wedding north of West Palm Beach Florida when armed gangs took over the airport in the Haitian capital, Port–Au–Prince, early last week, trapping them there,” the relative wrote, as The Christian Post reports. Ryan and one of the couple’s sons were already in the U.S. when the violence erupted.
“Flights have been canceled since then, forcing them to stay in a small hotel where they can hear gunshots as the massive gang violence to oust the prime minister continues all over the city, and especially near the airport where they are holed up. The teens are all white (one biological brother-sister set half Mexican), so they stand out in Haiti, which doesn't help at present,” the post continued.
The Dolan’s relative explained that roads in and out of the capital are closed, so the family can’t return to their ministry in a mountain village in western Haiti.
In an interview with The New York Post, Jill said the family has been in contact with the U.S. Embassy but that the help they’ve offered has amounted to assuring the mother and teenagers to “be safe.”
“My fear is that we will be caught in the middle of something really dangerous. We’re already on the front lines of it, we’re in a bad area. It’s kind of depressing. The gunfire never stops,” she added.
Lord, we are lifting the Dolans up to you, and everyone who is caught in the path of these violent gangs. There have been some reports that bodies are piling up in the streets, with no infrastructure to clear away the dead. We know that many in Haiti love You and know You, so we pray for armies of angels to surround them and for Your Spirit to minister through them as they brave against this onslaught of violence and wickedness.
Most of all, we lift up the souls of the gang members wreaking havoc and slaughtering the innocent, that they would be led to the foot of the Cross, repent of their wickedness, and be saved and redeemed forever in Your Kingdom with us, Lord. Amen.

England’s National Health Service will no longer prescribe puberty blockers to children citing a lack of reliable evidence as to the safety of this novel protocol to treat gender-confused children by stunting and disrupting their body’s natural hormonal development.
NHS doctors had previously warned that gender dysphoria was likely a "transient phase" and that puberty blocking hormones and drugs ought not to be used based on "evidence that, in most cases, gender incongruence does not persist into adolescence."
Now, following new guidance, the NHS website now reads that "Puberty blockers (gonadotrophin-releasing hormone analogues) are not available to children and young people for gender incongruence or gender dysphoria because there is not enough evidence of safety and clinical effectiveness,” as CBN News reported.
"NHS England has carefully considered the evidence review conducted by NICE and further published evidence available to date," an NHS spokesperson said in a statement.
"We have concluded that there is not enough evidence to support the safety or clinical effectiveness of puberty suppressing hormones to make the treatment routinely available at this time."
Friends, this is why it has always been worth risking public rebuke and criticism for warning against this dangerous new norm. The evidence has always been strongly suggestive at best that the so-called “Dutch protocol” was dangerous and harmful to children and prescribed more for the sake of affirming a radical adult ideology than serving the needs of gender dysphoric children.
When you remain on the side of right, the truth will often out in the end. What an encouragement to us to remain steadfast in this ocean of radical social upheaval, amen?

I’m glad to see England getting wise to all of this madness.
As I had commented on a previous post about transgenderism:
If someone has to be coerced, manipulated, or down right bullied into accepting a particular belief, then there is no morality behind that belie. Manipulation has been the go-to tactic for the transgender ideology.
In the book of Matthew, Jesus Christ told the disciples that, “If anyone will not welcome you or listen to your words, leave that home or town and shake the dust off your feet” — meaning he wasn’t going to force anyone to hear the word of God. That’s why the people who are pro-transgender are fighting so hard and bullying to uphold this ideology because there is no objective morality for them to hang a hat on.
As you said, continue to stand on the side of what is morally right and the truth will prevail.
