Last week, Faith & Liberty held the Live Nativity on Capitol Hill, right in front of the U.S. Supreme Court. This living Gospel tract powerfully displayed in our nation's capital the promise of peace to a nation and its leaders plagued by partisan disagreements, protests and chaos. Without doubt, Faith & Liberty's reenactment of the miracle of the Nativity impacted the many people on Capitol Hill who witnessed it. Unlike the recent protests in Washington, DC, the Live Nativity procession did not shut down traffic or result in violence. Instead, this procession of the Holy Family with Mary, Joseph, and the baby Jesus followed by the Wisemen and Shepherds brought joy to those there as evidenced by the many smiles and positive statements of thanks and appreciation.
The Live Nativity is the result of your partnership with Faith & Liberty! Thank you!
Blessings,
Peggy Nienaber, Vice President

"If my people who are called by my name humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land." -2 Chron. 7:14
There is so much happening in our nation’s capital that demands our attention and immediate response. Look for our ACTION emails coming up this week.

PRAYER
Please continue to lift up our leaders in prayer. The Bible commands us to intercede for the authorities in our lives. Pray for health, safety, and godly wisdom as they face difficult decisions.
