New Mexico Senate committee to hear end-of-life options bill Today
This doesn’t pass the smell test: New Mexico House speaker seeks dismissal of ethics complaint
New Mexico continues to go to pot, morally, we kill babies and maybe get our kids will get addicted to pot, we have drunk drivers killing people and if this bill passes I am sure we will have pot heads driving! So many love their booze! Senate committee holds hearing on recreational marijuana legislation
Sadly, the Church continues to lose influence for God in New Mexico. Just to think that the majority of the voters in New Mexico vote for people that approve of the killing of God’s babies, makes me very ill. This is awful….Makes me weep…….The death cloud gets thicker in this state. Satan is having his way with so very many. We are all at fault! We have failed to carry out The Great Commission. We love preaching to the choir!
From the writings of Billy Graham:
Doom and dismay has settled upon the hearts of people. There’s a specter of hopelessness seen in the headlines and in the deep lines that furrow troubled brows. Humanity searches for fulfillment yet the purposelessness of living is prevalent, robbing millions of the zest for life.
It doesn’t have to be this way. The greatest need in the world is for souls to find rest in Jesus Christ, possessing faith in Him daily no matter the circumstances. This is the ultimate goal — to be conformed to the image of Christ. The Bible says, “For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them” (Ephesians 2:10).
Jesus is our example. He will strengthen us in times of difficulty and will be with us when we walk through the trials that come. Jesus walked and talked as a man should. His attitude and approach to life were mature in every sense. He looked with holy eyes upon a sinful world but was not discouraged or depressed by it, but said, “I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly” (John 10:10). He has given us the key to living with joy and that is to know His salvation and obey Him every step of the way.
KOB TV quoted Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham on the chances of the pot bill passing…..
“I’m optimistic. Again there’s a lot of stuff going on, and I’ve seen cannabis fail because it’s complicated,” Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham said last week. “But I’m seeing the right movement in both the House and the Senate in these debates, and I’m confident they’re going to meet our expectations about safety, etc. plant count, and get me something upstairs that I can sign. I’m feeling pretty good about it.”
Those in favor of this are looking in all the wrong places for revenue!
The abortion industry is big in New Mexico!
New Mexico Recreational marijuana bill passes in state House, moves to Senate
Al this comes after the Governor had her way with repealing the abortion ban from 1969…..
Right now I have no words for this type of evil action. I weep for God’s babies.

From Pastor Don Kimbro:
And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being.
— Genesis 2:7
Planned Parenthood just released a report that is absolutely shocking. They announced a record 354,871 abortions committed in the last year. At the same time, the abortion giant took another $618 million in tax-payer funding—a record high.*
Over the past almost five decades in America, the most dangerous place for a human being to be has been in their mother’s womb—when it should be the safest. That’s right—since the passing of the most egregious Supreme Court decision in our nation’s history (Roe v. Wade), sixty million babies have been aborted in our nation. That amounts to 18% of our current population. Abortion is the most serious tragedy in our country’s past and the silence that has come from the church is deafening.
So what can we do to make a difference? The first thing is to recognize that ungodly people pass ungodly laws. In our state of New Mexico, a horrendous abortion bill was just passed by the votes of 40 House representatives and 25 Senators, and signed by a like-minded Governor. Those 66 men and women will all come up for election and they all can and must be defeated. Until that happens you can make an immediate difference by getting involved with national and local pro-life ministries that are standing up against these purveyors of the legalized murder of unborn children.
We can help sanctity of life organizations by joining in their efforts with our time, prayers, encouragement and financial support. Here is just a sampling of some of the great outreaches that are standing for life—but there are many more. Just click on the links below for more information. They all would welcome our help today!
Students For Life of America. Located on multiple college campuses all across America, SFLA’s vision and mission is to abolish abortion. They exist to recruit, train, and mobilize the Pro-Life Generation of young people to reach their peers with hope, love, encouragement and resources. Students for Life reaches young people during the crucial developmental years of middle school, high school, and college, inviting them to join their friends and belong to a movement that respects human life and stands up for those who don’t have a voice and for those in crisis. Their success has been phenomenal.
Care Net Pregnancy Centers. There are over 1,100 Care Net pregnancy centers across the U.S. that provide a safe place for women and their families to explore their options related to pregnancy and their future. Their mission is to be the most trusted faith-based provider of confidential, loving support and free services, including limited medical care that includes ultra sounds. Women facing an unplanned pregnancy, looking for pregnancy help or pregnancy counseling, have questions or would like to talk with a counselor, can visit a Care Net Pregnancy Center in or near most cities across America. We have an outstanding one in Albuquerque and surrounding area.
Susan B. Anthony List. SBA-List is a nationwide network of more than 900,000 Americans. They combine politics with policy, investing heavily in voter education to ensure that pro-life Americans know where their lawmakers stand on protecting the unborn, and in issue advocacy, advancing pro-life laws through direct lobbying and grassroots campaigns.
Pro-Life Witness. Bud and Tara Shaver are Pro-Life Missionaries serving in Albuquerque, NM. Commissioned by Operation Rescue to Albuquerque in 2010, they are implementing several proven strategies, in an effort to make New Mexico, “Abortion Free.” They have redefined the American mission field and their Pro-Life efforts have been featured in virtually every major news source in the country. Bud and Tara strive to keep Christ at the center of their efforts. They are a great resource for the “how to” for your community.
Saints, we can make a difference. With God’s help and provisions, thousands of unborn innocent children can be saved until such a time as abortion is no longer a choice and the scourge of our nation. It’s past time to stand up and speak up. Will you? — Maranatha!

Governor Signs Abortion Bill, Republican Senators Respond
SANTA FE – Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham today signed legislation to repeal New Mexico’s abortion law. Senate Bill 10, sponsored by Democratic Senator Linda Lopez (District 11-Bernalillo) and others, repealed an entire section of law that among other things protected medical professionals from being forced to participate in abortions and required that abortions be performed by licensed physicians.
Senate Republicans responded to the Governor’s action with the following statements:
“Though the Governor and pro-abortion activists will claim this as a victory for women, the only victor in this bill is the multi-million dollar abortion industry,” said Senator Crystal Diamond (District 35-Dona Ana, Hidalgo, Luna, and Sierra). “With the stroke of her pen, the Governor has weakened standards of care for women, stripped conscience protections for medical professionals, and given the abortion industry unchecked power to operate under the radar in our state. New Mexico women and children deserve better.”
“This is a sad day for New Mexico,” added Senator Gregg Schmedes (District 19-Bernalillo, Sandoval, Santa Fe, and Torrance). “Pro-abortion activists have not been shy about their disregard for unborn children’s lives. Their actions during this Legislative Session, however, exposed their deeper motivations – forcing doctors and nurses to perform abortions and enshrining legal abortion up to the moment of birth in New Mexico. The Governor calls this ‘equal justice.’ However, there is nothing ‘equal’ or ‘just’ about exploiting women for profit and terminating the lives of the most innocent and vulnerable among us.”
Planned Parenthood performed a record 354,871 abortions in 2019-2020 and received a record $618.1 million in government funding in 2019-2020. This occurred despite the fact that the organization is no longer participating in Title X and in a year when the U.S. implemented widespread lockdowns.
“Planned Parenthood’s business is abortion, not health care,” said Marjorie Dannenfelser, president of the pro-life non-profit, Susan B. Anthony List. Responding to Planned Parenthood’s 2019-2020 Annual Report, Dannenfelser said. “At a time when U.S. abortions overall have long been on the decline, Planned Parenthood is ending the lives of more than 354,000 unborn children a year. With Joe Biden and Kamala Harris in the White House, we can expect this alarming trend to continue.”

From the writings of the Rev. Billy Graham
Q: I’ve been a Christian most of my life and am grateful that my parents had the freedom to raise me in church according to God’s Word. Instead of being conformed to the ways of the world, I have learned about being conformed to the things of Christ, but the nation is rapidly changing, stripping citizens of freedoms that were once our foundation. Is there any hope to turn things around? — F.C.
A: Doom and dismay has settled upon the hearts of people. There’s a specter of hopelessness seen in the headlines and in the deep lines that furrow troubled brows. Humanity searches for fulfillment yet the purposelessness of living is prevalent, robbing millions of the zest for life.
