In his January 9, 2026 address to world diplomats, Pope Leo XIV sounded the alarm on two urgent crises: the rapid erosion of free speech in the West and widespread persecution of Christians.

He condemned the rise of a "new Orwellian-style language" — deliberately ambiguous and fluid — that claims to promote inclusion while actually silencing dissent. "Especially in the West," he said, "the space for genuine freedom of expression is shrinking fast," forcing moral conformity and punishing those who refuse to conform on life issues.

On religious freedom, the Pope highlighted that nearly 65% of humanity faces serious violations, with Christians suffering one of the worst crises today — over 380 million affected. He specifically denounced deadly attacks on Christian communities in Africa and the Middle East, plus subtler discrimination elsewhere.

His urgent call: Restore clear, honest speech to rebuild authentic dialogue, and guarantee full religious freedom for all.

Do you think the Pope's warning has come too late, or is there still time to reverse course on these grave issues facing humanity? Share your thoughts below. 👇🏻

The Great Iowa Treasure Hunt is a shining example of government working beautifully on behalf of its citizens—and businesses too!

Just like the Iowa State Treasurer's office excels at safeguarding misplaced or forgotten assets from companies when they lose contact with account owners, this program serves as a true financial lost-and-found. In a record-smashing 2025, it joyfully reunited rightful owners—including many businesses—with an incredible $33.6 million in unclaimed property across more than 53,000 claims, shattering the previous year's high by millions more!

Since launching, the initiative has delivered a heartwarming total of $408 million back to Iowans. Inspiring stories continue, like the lucky individual who reclaimed $4.5 million in long-forgotten McDonald’s stock and dividends from a $15,000 investment made decades ago.

Best of all: over $648 million in unclaimed treasures still awaits discovery! It's simple, free, and open to everyone—individuals and businesses alike—so why not check today at GreatIowaTreasureHunt.gov? What a wonderful way to bring forgotten funds home where they belong! 🎉

Igniting Emuna Into Shabbat

As we step into Shabbat, we pause to gather all the sparks we collected this week — the whispers of will, the quiet victories, the moments we remembered Hashem is in charge, and we are never alone.

We reflected on the power of ratzon (holy desire) — habaim l’taher m’sayim lo — how just wanting to grow draws Hashem near. We remembered that every mitzvah is a bond, a tzavta, uniting us with Hashem in our daily actions. We learned to shift focus from emotional impulse to conscious clarity, asking ourselves, “Is this choice aligned with my soul’s truth?”

And we were reminded: shalom begins inside. The work of healing our homes starts with healing our hearts.

As we light the candles this Shabbat, let's whisper:

“Hashem, help me serve You with joy, awareness, and a heart open to peace.”

Let this Shabbat be a resting place for your soul, a safe space for your emuna, and a sacred time to feel Hashem’s love — not just in theory, but in your body, your breath, your being.

Functional Light

By Tzvi Freeman

G‑d did not give you light that you may hold it up in the middle of the day.

When you are given light it is in order to accomplish something, to do something difficult and novel.

Go take your light into the dark places and transform them that they may also shine!
