Dear John,

Join us this Sunday, January 5, 2025 at 3:30 pm ET for the fourth annual “Faith in Democracy” Interfaith Prayer Vigil. This hybrid event will be livestreamed and held in-person at the Lutheran Church of the Reformation (212 East Capitol St NE) NOTE new INDOOR location.

Click here to register for Jan 5 Faith in Democracy Vigil.  

The DC Poor People's Campaign is partnering with Franciscan Action Network, Sojourners, Faith in Peace Concerts, and many other partners to bring together faith leaders and believers from a variety of traditions, all speaking from sacred texts which guide us to protect the rights of all and to resolve our differences without violence. In the United States, our way of doing that is through a properly functioning and fully representative democracy.

Find more information about speakers and musicians at the FAN website.

Please join this important vigil to stand and pray for democracy, peace, and unity as our newly elected officials take office.

Coming up: DC MLK Day celebration on Saturday Jan 18.
