What has The Matthew XVIII Group been up to since the Supreme Court?
Dear Friends,
This is another update that has me amazed and humbled. Not only am I heading to Africa in the fall, but this ministry is now in Australia! We are talking about taking down the UN’s push for the “sexual rights of the child” and the WHO’s attempt to bring “sexual health” aka grooming to our children. Let me give a recap of what has been happening since the U.S. Supreme Court rally and what is to come.
January 31 – Restore the Republic
I presented on the origins and intent of sex ed. See below for the full presentation:
February 3 – Resistance Chicks
See below for the interview with myself and Rhonda Miller about sex ed and the one world order:
February 10 – Daniel Nation
Pastor Brandon Burden asked me to give a report on the ongoing battle. The livestream can be found on his YouTube channel linked below:
March 3 – Grayson County Lincoln/Reagan Dinner
I was asked to give the closing prayer after my dear friend, Jaco Booyens, presented and he was a hard act to follow. I was able to meet up with Rep. Shelly Luther and TX Board of Ed member Pam Little to discuss the upcoming legislation that would protect children.  Audrey with Jaco Booyens |  Shelly Luther, Diana Richards, and Audrey |
March 6 – Christian Bott Radio Show
I was a guest on the Christian Bott Radio show with Judy Redlich. This show is aired in the St. Louis area, home of the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod where my journey began. The full show can be heard below:
March 19 – Testified for HB 267 which allowed a reunion with Debbie Simmons, Jennifer Fleck, and Diana Richards.
We were the first state to testify 6 years ago to remove the “Obscenity Exemption” law that was based on Kinsey. This law allowed adults to show obscene materials to children in the schools and libraries if it was used for “educational purposes.” A few other states got rid of the law in the past few years and I am happy to report that finally Texas legislators voted to remove the Obscenity Exemption. in Texas  Audrey testifies for HB267 |  THEN 2019 - The original group with Rep Briscoe Cain  NOW 2025 - Still fighting to protect kids! |
April 7 – Texoma Patriots
I spoke on a panel of powerful ladies regarding school issues.

April 15 – Hunt County CWA – my talk was titled, “How to Save the Kids of America.”
April 28 – Testified for SB 2101 which would require age verification to check out obscene books in the library.
I sat at a table on the Senate floor next to my new friend Bonnie who read aloud from those books until asked to stop. We were seated between a Trans ACLU lawyer and a lesbian librarian (both against this bill) and I marveled at the battle before us to protect our kids. While in Austin, I ran into old friends I have met along the way who continue to go to the front line for our kids every session.
May 16 the was the third annual Matthew XVIII Group “Restore God’s Law” event.
This year I took 55 prayer warriors on a bus down to Austin. Others joined us to make it a standing room crowd in that old Supreme Court Room in the Capitol building. Those who have prophetic ministries told us what we were doing that day would create a “seismic shift” in the legislature of Texas which will spread across the nation. Many don’t realize, but Texas is the new California with many Republicans captured by the deep state. This session was looking pretty bleak despite some great wins. I want to thank Jody & Christina Thigpen - my media team, who put together a great summary of the event:
I want to share one of many amazing things that happened that day: My prayer team was in the old Supreme Court room while other teams prayed in other strategic areas of the building. Senator Bob Hall had stopped by and we laid hands on him and prayed. While I was praying, I felt a pop beneath my feet resonating throughout my body; like the pop I felt each time when my water broke and then I went into labor. After that, the ground shook; others in the group were finding it hard to stand while some felt nothing at all. I believe that was the seismic shift that God began in Texas - watch Texas over the next few months as God moves!
May 19 – M4LU aka Moms 4 Liberty University
I was one of two speakers doing a Q & A after the movie “War on Children” was shown. The month of May highlighted “comprehensive sex education” and what an honor to partner with such a great organization!
May 22 – I had an opportunity to work with leaders across the world.
Rhonda Miller and I are now part of IC4C aka the International Coalition 4 Children which is a group of leaders who have been fighting the global sexualization of children. This group was formed to hold the UN & WHO responsible for their part in grooming children. The website is here and I would ask you to sign the petition which we will deliver in person to the leaders of the UN & WHO when they meet in D.C. this fall.
June 21 - I will be speaking at a parenting conference (via zoom) in Australia for a wonderful group that is trying to wake up the Christians to save their nation.
I will also be on a Christian radio show in Australia to promote the event. Perhaps one day I will be traveling there as well.
Upcoming Events
June?
The U.S. Supreme Court will be handing down a ruling for the case I wrote a brief – Free Speech Coalition vs. Paxton. This is the first time the court will rule on limiting the porn industry.
August-September
The end of summer marks the annual speaking tour where I make stops in Indiana and Michigan (and vacation in the middle with my family).
September-October
I will be with the IC4C in Washington D.C.

At this time, I would ask that you continue to pray for this ministry and consider donating to help us continue to do the work God has called us to do. We now have Pro-Life payments as our venue if you wish to donate on our website www.matthewxviii.org and part of the donation will go to a crisis pregnancy center. Thank you so much for taking the time to read what God can do when just a few people say, “Yes, send me!”
To God be all the glory!
