We Need Your Help: 25 Million Christians
It's estimated that over 25 million Christians didn't vote
in the last presidential election in 2016. Even more troubling is the
latest data showing that atheists are the most politically active
"religious" group in America.

This means that while believers sit on the sidelines, the groups
selecting the country's political leaders are those who would be
all too happy to throw religious freedom rights in the wastebasket,
take the lives of more babies in the womb, and bring further harm to
families. It's no wonder some leaders pass laws that directly
contradict God's Word.
Believe us-we know politics can be messy. Our calling every day
is to engage with government in a manner worthy of the Gospel. But we
also know that our system of government is another mission field in
which the Body of Christ must engage.
Not every believer may be called to serve in this mission field as an
elected leader. But every believer is called to engage. If we truly
believe that biblical values bring about good for everyone-both
believers and nonbelievers-then how can we not cast a vote for
leaders who will best advance these values and pass laws that do the
most good to protect religious freedom, life, and families?
That's why it's critical that we reach those 25 million Christians.
At Family Policy Alliance, we've set aside 2 Sundays where you
can help us do that. We are asking you (and other individual
believers) to help us get Christians who aren't registered to
vote registered, and to help register as many Christians as possible
in churches during two Voter Registration Sundays!
We know of many cases where half the church members or more are not
registered in a given church! Will you help us reach those 25 million?
Join us on one or both Voter Registration Sundays:
Sunday, September 20th
If you live in AK, MT, RI, SC, or UT, you will need to participate in
September to meet your state's voter registration deadline. We
also strongly encourage you to consider this option if you the
following states, because these states require registrations to be
postmarked immediately after the October date: AR, AZ, FL, GA, HI,
IL*, IN, KY, LA, MS, NM*, NV*, OH, TN, TX (*state deadline falls on
10/6. All other listed states' deadlines are 10/5. For both
cases, we encourage you to choose September or to postmark/urge
congregants to postmark registrations immediately on 10/5 should you
choose the October option)
Sunday, October 4th
How can you participate? It's easy:
1. Visit our voter registration webpage to make sure you're registered
to vote, and share the link with friends and family!
