On May 11, 2007, the 4th World Congress of Families convened at the Palace of Culture and Science in Warsaw, Poland.  Our President, Steven Mosher spoke at this conference on Saturday afternoon, May 12th. His topic was on the subject of "Promoting and Protecting the Large Family: New Ideas," as part of the Plenary Panel, "Children as Treasures: Welcoming More Babies and Larger Families." Thanks to your prayers, the conference went very well, and we believe it went far in the cause of promoting "principles that respect and uphold the vital roles that the family plays in society."

This Mexico City Policy says that organizations may not receive U.S. funding if they are going to use that funding to perform or promote abortion as a method of family planning in other nations. Recently, the House of Representatives, and the Senate voted to abandon the Mexico City Policy.

Project Stop Abortion

PRI launched a new initiative in Spring 2007. Our training seminar gave pro-life Latin American professionals the tools and the hope they needed to find evidence of abortion advocacy groups misusing U.S. funding to coerce women into having abortions and sterilizations. When this evidence is submitted, Congress in turn will investigate, and these groups will lose their funding. Help us continue fielding investigators in this new project to stop abortion.
