Faithful Witness Wednesdays
Senate East Front, Grassy Area 8/Hybrid
Washington, DC
When: | Wednesday, March 5, 12:00 PM |
FCNL, Sojourners, and other faith partners partners are organizing a bipartisan series of faithful witness events at the Capitol every Wednesday in March. These multi-faith gatherings will call on Congress to exercise greater moral courage in upholding its Article 1 powers and preventing executive overreach.
Our nation faces an escalating constitutional crisis fueled by the Trump administration’s overreach and unconstitutional actions. A lack of leadership in Congress has allowed this crisis to grow, as it cedes its role as a co-equal branch of government. The faith community has a unique opportunity to raise a prophetic and pastoral call, urging Congressional leaders to act.
These vigils will remain nonpartisan while speaking truth to power, highlighting what’s at stake and the communities already affected. They will feature faith leaders from diverse traditions offering inspirational prayers, reflections, and calls to faithful action.
