We invite you to join On Our Knees, a nationwide prayer initiative for the unborn and for the U.S. Supreme Court as it reconsiders abortion law in America.

In Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, the Supreme Court is reviewing Mississippi’s law limiting abortion after 15 weeks of pregnancy. Specifically, the Supreme Court will consider whether all pre-viability bans on abortion are unconstitutional.

We know unborn children are human beings who deserve protection: now is the time to humanize our laws.

On Our Knees calls upon the Lord asking for His mercy and favor. We aim to join the scores of people who have been praying faithfully and working valiantly on behalf of the unborn. Whether you have been engaged in this work for decades or today is your first day, we welcome you to join us in prayer.

In Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, the U.S. Supreme Court is reviewing Mississippi’s law limiting abortion after 15 weeks of pregnancy. The law was passed in 2018 by overwhelming majorities in the Mississippi state legislature and signed by then-Governor Phil Bryant. Specifically, the Supreme Court will consider whether all pre-viability bans on abortion are unconstitutional.

The Dobbs decision is expected in the summer of 2022. While a range of outcomes is possible, our prayer is that Roe v. Wade will be upended and lives will be saved. Further consideration of laws protecting the unborn would be returned to the 50 states, where citizens’ voices can be considered and where lawmakers must answer to the voters.

Science has advanced considerably since Roe and Casey were decided in 1973 and 1992 respectively. Modern technology allows us to observe more about life in the womb than ever before. We know that by 15 weeks, children in the womb have fully formed noses and lips, eyelids and eyebrows; they can suck their thumbs; and they feel pain. Yet the United States remains one of just seven countries – including China and North Korea – to permit late-term abortion on demand. By contrast, 47 out of 50 European nations limit elective abortion prior to 15 weeks.

We know unborn children are human beings who deserve protection: now is the time to humanize our laws.

Lawmakers across America, acting on the will of the people, have done just that – introducing more than 500 pro-life bills this year alone. We pray the Supreme Court will continue the work begun in the states.
