Porn.

The very word makes most people very uncomfortable. It is rarely spoken aloud. Rather, it is nervously spoken in hushed tones to prevent any passersby from getting the wrong idea.

Pornography itself does not hide. It is estimated that the porn industry is bigger than Major League Baseball and the National Football League – combined. Twelve percent of all internet content is pornography.

Expenditures on pornography are estimated to be $3,000…per second.

Can we raise $3000.00 per month to combat this scourge? That’s our goal here at Integrity Restored, to raise $3000 per month to combat the $3000 per second being spent on porn. Sounds like a classic David vs. Goliath battle doesn’t it? Well it is, but with your help, we can fight this battle and help countless souls who are now struggling in the darkness.

Porn kills.

Pornography kills the ability of men to view women as daughters of a loving Father. Porn kills the ability of women to see themselves as more than sexual objects. Porn kills marriages. Porn kills healthy relationships. Porn kills our understanding of our bodies and our sexuality as wonderfully and divinely-inspired gifts from God.

By raising $3000.00 per month we can add to our already successful Bloom for Catholic Women program, we can launch a men’s version, we can continue to provide resources like our books, Wonderfully Made Babies, Revealed and Plunging Pornography.

Porn is a weapon of the Enemy.

Pornography attacks the head, the heart, and the soul. Those entrapped by it face a spiritual, emotional and psychological battle of incredible difficulty. Like with any addiction, those who emerge from its grasp must remain vigilant. Forever.

By raising $3000 per month, we can continue to train priests to deal with this scourge in their everyday ministries, we can develop an online recovery program for those afflicted and we can reach thousands of souls with an online webinar program.

Porn knows no boundaries.

Pornography affects young and old, male and female, single and married, rich and poor, lay and religious. It can hold hostage the atheist as well as the zealot. Like a virus, it can infect anyone whom it encounters through TV, email, social media or the internet. It lurks in the shadows, patiently awaiting the unsuspecting, the curious and the intentional alike, without prejudice or preference. It is sustained and spread by a culture that continues to create an environment by which it can not only survive but thrive.

By raising $3000 per month, we can continue to educate, train and offer additional resources in this battle, stepping into the darkness and bringing light to the evil overtaking our society.

Still, there is great hope.

By your gift of $50.00, $25.00, $10.00 per month, or a one-time gift, you join directly in providing hope and healing in this battle. Can you prayerfully consider this gift now? The seconds are ticking away…

As with all great conflicts throughout human history, there are those who rise to the challenge. There are those willing to emerge from the darkness and shine the Light of Truth on evil.

Integrity Restored exists to help restore the integrity of individuals, spouses, and families that have been affected by pornography and pornography addiction. Our programs and resources have helped thousands of individuals from all walks of life to emerge from the darkness of pornography use and addiction. We have trained scores of priests to be better equipped to help their own parishioners in this struggle.

Yet there is so much more that can be done. That’s why we need your help in reaching our goal…

Will you help young men to develop a properly-ordered view of women and sexuality? Will you help married couples as they work through a husband’s – or wife’s – addiction? Will you help young women to understand their inherent beauty and uniqueness in the eyes of God? Will you help priests to remain holy – and whole – so that they may shepherd their flocks effectively and with personal integrity?

By partnering with us, you join the battle. By investing in this ministry, you extend a helping hand to the countless men and women being led astray by the lies and distortions of pornography. God has gifted each one of us with a guardian angel. Please consider joining us as an Integrity Angel – a monthly donor committed to helping individuals emerge from and stay clear of the darkness of pornography. In whatever manner you choose to help us, know that your gift goes directly to assist your brothers and sisters in this fight. Can you make your gift today?

Yours in Christ,

Jim O’Day
Executive Director

P.S. will you join me daily in saying the prayer to our Guardian Angel:

“Angel of God, my guardian dear, to whom God’s love commits me here, ever this day be at my side to light, to guard, to rule and guide. Amen”
