Reformed Presbyterian pastor the Rev. Patrick Mahoney will be walking 100 miles from Belfast, Northern Ireland to Dublin, Ireland 11-18 May 2013 with a small group of American pro-life leaders which will be joined by members of the Irish pro-life community along the route.
Beginning 11 May, the pro-life and faith community around the world will be able to participate in this “Global Prayer Event” via Facebook (RevPatrickMahoney) and Ustream (Prayer Walk to Keep Ireland Abortion Free).
Ireland is facing its most critical challenge in keeping their nation abortion free as pro-abortion legislation is moving forward quickly in the Irish Parliament.
This prayer walk is a reprisal of a walk Rev. Mahoney did twenty-three years ago seeking God to end sectarian violence in that country between Catholics and Protestants.
Director of the Christian Defense Coalition the Rev. Patrick J. Mahoney states:
“As Ireland faces its greatest challenge toward keeping their nation abortion free, it is critical that the pro-life and faith community passionately and urgently seek God in prayer.
“The greatest resource for bringing about social change and protecting human rights and justice is prayer. Through prayer, we can see God shift and shape history and keep Ireland abortion free.
“Through technology, we will be able to have people from around the world join us in prayer ‘live’ from Ireland. This ‘Global Prayer Event’ will unite the pro-life community in a way we have never seen before and people will be able to stand with Ireland from their homes, churches, schools and places of employment.
“Twenty-three years ago I held a similar prayer walk asking God to bring and end to the sectarian violence in Ireland. We are so thankful for the amazing results we have seen in that regard. On May 11-18, I will be praying and asking [that] God keep the violence of abortion out of Ireland and to ensure there are human rights, equality and justice for all.”

[2] Assyrian International News Agency Website Disappears after 4 May 2013 News Summary Released
The Assyrian International News Agency (AINA) website (www.aina.org) disappeared from the web sometime after the 6 a.m. EDT 4 May 2013 AINA News Digest was emailed. The aina.org Internet domain is registered to Nineveh Software Corporation (NSC) of Chicago, Illinois, whose website is inaccessible as of publication of this article.
AINA reports extensively on Muslim terrorism and Islamic persecution of Christians worldwide, but especially about persecuted Christians in the eastern region of Asia called Assyria, in Africa, in Afghanistan, in Indonesia, and on the Indian subcontinent.
The editor, a computer administrator for more than thirty years and an Internet administrator for more than twenty, hopes that AINA’s and NSC’s website problems are just a temporary technical glitch, but is concerned because the type of news reported by AINA is antithetical to the goals and actions of Islam worldwide.

[3] What Every Christian Needs to Know about the Qur’an by James White Published by Baker Publishing Group
What used to be an exotic religion of people halfway around the world is now the belief system of people living across the street. Relying on the media and politicians for information about what Muslims believe isn’t going to cut it. Christians need to be better informed, whether the goal is to understand global politics or to talk to a Muslim neighbor.
A respected scholar, apologist, and ministry leader, Dr. James White has publicly debated the world’s most prominent Muslim apologists. Through fair and accurate use of the Qur’an and other documents, White examines what Muslim sacred texts teach about Christ, salvation, the Trinity, the afterlife, and other crucial topics in this book.
“What Every Christian Needs to Know about the Qur’an” provides believers with an understanding of Islam that will enable them to engage in open, honest discussions about the religion with Muslims and others.
“It is absolutely essential that Christians understand that Islam and Christianity represent two contradictory sets of truth claims. James White understands this, and in this important new book he sets out the issues of truth with distinction and clarity. Christians will welcome this book as they seek to understand the challenge of Islam.” — R. Albert Mohler Jr., president, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary
“This book is magnificent! I believe this is the most thorough and comprehensive book written by an evangelical scholar on the Qur’an.” — Abdul Saleeb, coauthor of “Answering Islam” and “The Dark Side of Islam”
About the Author:
James R. White is the author of several acclaimed books, including “The God Who Justifies,” and “The Forgotten Trinity.” The director of Alpha and Omega Ministries, he is an accomplished debater of Muslim apologists and an elder of the Phoenix Reformed Baptist Church. James has been interviewed on numerous outlets including “In the Market with Janet Parshall,” “The Janet Mefferd Show” and ChristianPost.com. He and his family live in Phoenix, Arizona.

[4] Australian MP Tries to Muzzle Upcoming Sydney World Congress of Families Meeting
World Congress of Families (WCF) Managing Director Lawrence Jacobs reported 29 April 2013 that he was astonished by a call to censor, for standing up for marriage and the natural family, the upcoming WCF VII meeting in Sydney, Australia scheduled 15-18 May 2013 at the Australian Technology Park.
Jacobs noted:
“Leaders of a self-styled ‘sexual minority’ have expressed anger over some of our speakers….Australian MP Alex Greenwich was so agitated by the expression of views which conflict with his own that he wrote the New South Wales Tourism Minister, demanding that the Congress be monitored for heretical thoughts and, if any are found, sanctions be applied under the state’s ‘anti-discrimination law.’”
WCF VII sessions will include: The Causes And Cost of Family Breakdown – What Families Are Best for the Economy? — Will the Human Family Survive: Can We Prosper with Small Families? – Philosophical Roots of the Cultural Revolution – Secular Humanism and Family Values — Demographic Winter – Masculinity and Femininity –The Impact on Children of Legalizing “Same-Sex Marriage” – Economic and Social Costs of Abortion – Healing Post-Abortion Trauma – Work of the Home: A True Profession — AIDS Prevention through Strengthening Families – Marriage as An Instrument of Human Development – Promoting Families In the Mainstream and Online Media – Consumerism and The Soul — Defending Faith In An Age of Christophobia – The Pornography Industry – and Reaching the Next Generation with a Pro-Family Message.

[5] World Communion of Reformed Churches to meet in Ghana
The role of the Reformed church movement in global ecumenism is the focus of a meeting of the World Communion of Reformed Churches (WCRC) set to get underway in Ghana 7-17 May 2013 at the Forest Hotel in Dodowa near the country’s capital, Accra. Discussion by the organization’s executive committee comes at a time when new models for inter-church collaboration are emerging in response to the decline in traditional sources of support for worldwide church organizations.
WCRC links 229 member churches in 108 countries with an estimated combined membership of 80 million people. The organization is known for its emphasis on theological formation, dialogue with other church traditions (Pentecostal, Catholic, Lutheran) and for its assertion that Biblical teachings instruct Christians to transform unjust social and economic systems that harm people and the earth’s ecological system.
