AL organization, 24th Judicial Circuit District Attorney’s office hosting annual board game drive
SUMMARY: The Helping Families Initiative and the 24th Judicial Circuit District Attorney's Office in Alabama are organizing their second annual board game drive. Their aim is to collect 600 games, which would be enough to provide one to every first-grade student in Pickens, Fayette, and Lamar counties. Megan Acker, the project creator in 2022, emphasizes that board games are not just for play but also help families bond, learn, and create memories. Last year, they distributed 212 games to each Pickens County Elementary School. Donors can contribute games at the District Attorney's office locations in Carrollton, Fayette, and Vernon.

Reaction to Southern Baptists call for IVF restrictions
SUMMARY: The Southern Baptist Convention, the largest Protestant denomination in the U.S., addressed the contentious issue of in vitro fertilization (IVF) during their annual meeting. They passed a non-binding resolution urging their 13 million members to avoid IVF. This debate has intensified since the overturning of Roe v. Wade, with anti-IVF advocates arguing that it destroys “embryonic human life,” while pro-IVF supporters consider it a vital, safe procedure. The resolution calls for lawmakers to be cautious and consider the moral implications of IVF, emphasizing the sanctity of human life. Further details on the convention's decisions will be provided later.
