SUMMARY:Celebration of Carolina Values\, Charlotte
DESCRIPTION:Hello\,\nWe wanted to personally invite you to meet Rosaria at our upcoming Celebration of Carolina Values event on April 24th in Charlotte. \nWe would be honored to have you be part of this wonderful evening\, and we wanted to introduce you to this year’s incredible speaker\, Rosaria Butterfield: \nRosaria is a former tenured professor of English and women’s studies at Syracuse University\, where she experienced a profound spiritual transformation. Her memoir\, The Secret Thoughts of an Unlikely Convert: An English Professor’s Journey into Christian Faith (Crown and Covenant\, 2012)\, details this remarkable journey. She is now married to Kent Butterfield\, a Reformed Presbyterian pastor in North Carolina\, and is also a mother\, grandmother\, author\, and speaker. \nRaised in liberal Roman Catholic environments and passionate about books and philosophy\, Rosaria embraced feminist philosophy and LGBTQ+ politics in her late twenties\, identifying as a lesbian. She earned her Ph.D. from The Ohio State University (1992) and served in the English department and women’s studies program at Syracuse University from 1992 to 2002\, achieving tenure in 1999. In 1997\, while researching the Religious Right and their perceived hostility toward people like herself\, Rosaria wrote a critical article about The Promise Keepers\, an Evangelical Christian organization for men which opposes same-sex marriage\, and emphasizes marital fidelity and the man as being head of the household. This led to a series of dinners with local Reformed Presbyterian pastor Ken Smith and his wife\, Floy. Their discussions on the Religious Right and the Bible profoundly impacted Rosaria\, who eventually converted to Christianity in 1999 after reading the Bible multiple times under their guidance. \nSince then\, Rosaria has authored multiple books and engages regularly in speaking engagements where she shares about her journey and the transformative work of the Gospel. \nRosaria recently spoke at Liberty University’s 2023 Convocation Ceremony. If you are not familiar with her work and message\, this video wonderfully displays her heart to declare the truth of the Gospel\, and its transformational power. Click here to see her speech. \nWe would hate for you to miss an opportunity to hear from such an incredible woman and champion of your values. If you would like to meet Rosaria yourself\, and celebrate all of our pro-values accomplishments this year\, secure your ticket at ncvalues.org/celebration. \nRegister

SUMMARY:Mama Bear Workshop (Asheville\, NC)
DESCRIPTION:Sending a child to public school does not mean parents forfeit their fundamental right to know and influence what their child is being taught. Parents have long exercised local control over public education to ensure their court-recognized right to oversee their child’s learning and upbringing is respected. Unfortunately\, progressive activists have increasingly used schools as a tool for social change\, often at the expense of parental input. \nJoin us for the Mama Bear Workshop at Radiant Church in Arden\, NC\, where you’ll learn how to protect children from harmful curriculum and ideological indoctrination. Half of all ticket sales will be donated to Samaritan’s Purse to support their efforts in rebuilding Western North Carolina. Doors for coffee and registration open at 9:30am. Lunch will be provided. \nClick here to get your $10 ticket.

SUMMARY:Pro-Life Rally
DESCRIPTION:We have formed an alliance of pro-life groups across the state to stand together in support of SB 20\, “Care for Women\, Children\, and Families Act\,” while Governor Roy Cooper partners with Planned Parenthood for a rally to support his veto. \nPlease JOIN US this coming Saturday\, May 13\, 2023\, to unify our voices to support mothers and preborn babies.  \nRecently\, the NC General Assembly passed historic legislation in response to Roe v. Wade being overturned by the U.S. Supreme Court last year! The “Care for Women\, Children\, and Families Act\,” is a much-anticipated pro-life bill designed to save at least 4\,000 unborn precious babies each year from the atrocity of abortion\, and likely thousands more. After months of negotiation\, legislators agreed on a bill to move the 20-week abortion limit back to 12 weeks\, and greatly restrict chemical abortions that are administered by taking two pills. \nRoy Cooper has announced he is vetoing this legislation on Saturday\, and he is holding a rally with Planned Parenthood. He has specifically targeted 4 of our Republican lawmakers to stop the override of his veto. We want to show a clear presence of support for these lawmakers to override the veto and to withstand the pressure from the bullying of Governor Cooper! \nInstructions for Day of: May 13\, 2023 \nRally to be held at 10am in front of the Legislative Building (16 W Jones St\, Raleigh\, NC 27601). see map below with red circle \nA group will be getting there early at 9:30am and meeting in the parking lot to walk over together. see map with yellow circle \nNote the blue circle is where the Cooper/Planned Parenthood rally is being held.  \nMallory Finch\, with Those Other Girls\, will be the point person to look for. She will be wearing a pink shirt. \n  \n \nPlease feel empowered to bring signs\, your best pro-life gear\, a positive attitude\, and your phones! We will have multiple speakers to rally the troops. We want to show a large presence of North Carolina Pro-lifers that want to protect the preborn. \nIf you have any questions\, Please feel free to email me\, at courtney@ncvalues.org. \nCourtney Geels\nGrassroots Director\, NC Values \n

SUMMARY:Legislative Days of Pro-life Action Day 2
DESCRIPTION:We are raising the alarm\, and need your help. We urgently call on all pro-life supporters of our coalition to take action that helps us save over 26\,000 babies in North Carolina per year!  \nIn the next few days the NC legislature will decide what legislation will be put forward to limit abortion. This decision is being made in Republican caucuses behind closed doors\, and the pro-life movement in North Carolina needs to act NOW\, before a bill is filed. There is much pressure on these lawmakers to present a bill that only makes minimal changes to the current abortion law\, and saves only around 4\,000 babies a year. \nFor the legislature to present a bold pro-life bill that will save over 26\,000 lives a year\, they need to hear from you! A Heartbeat Act that limits abortion when a heartbeat is detected in the pre-born child—about 6 weeks—will make a significant impact by saving the lives of 22\,000 thousand more babies than the 13-week limit being floated in legislative chambers. States like Texas\, Arkansas\, Georgia\, Alabama\, Tennessee\, Kentucky\, South Carolina (although the South Carolina Supreme Court overturned it) and Missouri have passed Heartbeat Acts. Even Governor Ron Desantis in Florida has indicated that he will sign a Heartbeat Act into law. This is a decision that our legislators are deciding right now\, and they need to hear from you as soon and frequently as possible! We are talking about saving real lives. \nAs a result\, we are organizing two important Days of Action on Tuesday and Wednesday of next week (February 28th and March 1st). We’re calling on coalition members from all across the state to drive down to Raleigh and join us as we go and visit legislators in person at the General Assembly. Your presence and activism will make a critical difference in whether legislators propose a Heartbeat Act or a 13-week limit on abortion. If you would like to join us for one of these days\, click here or see the event info below: \n\nWHO: You\, and pro-life supporters all across NC.\nWHAT: Legislation Days of Pro-life Action in Support of the Heartbeat Bill.\nWHERE: 16 West Jones Street\, Raleigh\, NC. We will be set up on the lawn in the front of the legislative building on the right hand side\, starting at 9 o’clock.

SUMMARY:303 Creative v. Elenis Rally
DESCRIPTION:On the morning of December 5th\, oral arguments will be held at the Supreme Court for 303 Creative v. Elenis. \nThis case is an important one for religious freedom and the First Amendment. At the core of the case is determining the question of whether the government can force Americans and artists like 303 Creative’s Lorie Smith to speak and create contrary to their core Christian beliefs. To learn more about the case\, check out our sister organization’s brief here\, or visit createfreely.org.  \nOn the morning of December 5th\, we’ll be joining ADF and a number of our pro-values friends in D.C. at the steps of the Supreme Court to support Lorie Smith and free speech. The rally will include a great line-up of speakers who will be delivering remarks on the importance of the First Amendment. \nIf you are able and interested in being a part of history\, and would like to help us advance the cause of religious freedom\, would you consider joining NC Values and others in D.C. on December 5th?
