Let Us Pray

In 2023, the Texas State Legislature passed legislation that prohibits dangerous gender transition procedures from being performed on minors. In response to the law, the Texas Children’s Hospital (TCH), which is the largest pediatric hospital based in the heart of the Texas Medical Center, publicly said it had stopped its gender transition program.

Shortly after the bill went into effect, it was uncovered that the hospital was not only disregarding the law but also consciously and intentionally concealing the records. In response, the Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton launched an investigation into the hospital’s deceptive activities.

After a legal battle between the state and the hospital, just a few days ago, Attorney General Paxton announced that a settlement had been reached. Due to the hospital illegally providing transition procedures to minors, it must now create the nation’s first-ever detransition clinic, along with paying $10 million to the state.

The hospital’s detransition clinic will provide multifaceted care to children who were subjected to damaging gender transition procedures. It was also announced that for the first five years of the clinic’s operation, care provided to patients would be free. Praise be to God that the nation’s largest pediatric hospital is once again a place of healing for confused and vulnerable children. Texas Children’s Hospital is once again fulfilling its duty to do no harm and care for young people, which leads to fruitful lives.

LET US PRAY…

Father, we praise You that once more, Texas Children’s Hospital is a place of healing led by medical science and not one led by radical transgender ideology. Lord, we praise You for Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton and his courage to expose Texas Children’s Hospital’s illegal practices. Father, may each child in our nation understand that You have created them perfectly, either male or female, for a great purpose and plan. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
