Iowa law wisely allows for a check and balance of the Supreme Court through a retention vote by you, the citizens. In April of 2009, we all witnessed blatant judicial activism by the Iowa Supreme Court. The court legislated from the bench…they governed from the bench…and, they even attempted to amend our constitution from the bench as they declared Iowa a “Same Sex” marriage state. This is not their role. The Legislature makes the law. The Governor executes the law. And, only “we the people” can amend our constitution.

If the Iowa Supreme Court will do this to marriage, every one of our freedoms, including gun rights and private property, is in danger of being usurped by activist judges who are unelected officials. Most Americans believe that government is out of control. Now is the time to take a stand against the radical judicial activism of the Iowa Supreme Court.

What can you do? Please join our growing team by signing up today. Then, on November 2, defend your freedom by voting “no” on the retention of the three Supreme Court Justices.

NLBC collected some 40+ buckets for the Haiti relief effort. Each Bucket was filled with supplies like flour, sugar, rice, beans, oil, pasta, peanut butter, that could feed a family for at least a week.

In the weeks following the earthquake the church had a special time of prayer over each bucket. We prayed that God would nourish the bodies and souls of each family that received buckets. Shortly after that some 30+ volunteers assembled at New Life one weekday night to pack and prepare each bucket for shipping.

New Life is grateful to be able to have a part of the 155,000 buckets Baptists delivered in the name of Jesus to Haiti. For more on this ministry project check out this SBC Life article: http://www.sbclife.net/Articles/2010/08/SLA10.asp.
