Cleveland, Tenn.— Cry out America is experiencing a tremendous increase of registrations from intercessors, pastors, churches, ministries, and citizens willing to lead public prayer gatherings on Wednesday, September 11, 2014.
The National Day of Remembrance for Aborted Children on Saturday, September 13, 2014, was first marked in the modern era last fall, but memorialization of society’s tiniest innocent victims is not a new idea. Citizens for a Pro-life Society, Priests for Life, and the Pro-life Action League have reached back to ancient Rome for the inspiration behind this solemn national event. Dug into the walls of the earliest Christian catacombs in the outskirts of Rome are countless small tombs, only a foot or two across. These are the burial places of infants cast out of their pagan homes and left to die of starvation and exposure – a common practice of that time. Members of the early church, charged by Christ to love all their neighbors, offered these newborn sacrifices to Roman cruelty the only act of love they could – that of burying their little bodies and mourning for them in prayer.
What if the great legends and founding fathers of the Christian Church got it wrong? What if Martin Luther’s world-changing 95 Theses are actually incomplete?
A national movement is gaining momentum as tens of thousands of churches prepare to welcome several million people to services all on the same day, Back to Church Sunday® on September 21. And in some communities, churches are unifying to encourage everyone to get back to church on this special day.

More than 1,200 people from 14 states and 4 nations gathered at The Tabernacle located in Orchard Park, NY, this past weekend for the Eagles’ Wings Generations conference. Under the leadership of Bishop Robert Stearns, this three-day convocation brought together an unprecedented cross-section of Christian leaders from four generations. With ministry from some of the great fathers of the faith with over 60 years of ministry, to preaching from a fiery young 11-year-old sharing the simple truths of the faith, each session explored another facet of how God is uniting the generations to win the world for Christ.
