We’ve been anticipating this week for some time, and it’s finally here!
The 32nd Annual U.S. Capitol Bible Reading Marathon kicked off Saturday, May 1, with a ceremony on the patio of our Ministry Center and continues through Wednesday, May 5. This 90-hour live event exalts God and His Word as it is read in Washington, D.C., and by believers across the country. Several members of Congress are also demonstrating that they value the Bible and its place in our nation’s history by reading the Scriptures publicly during the event. Be sure to drop by FaithandLibertyDC.org to view the readings live.
Blessings in Christ,
Peggy Nienaber, Vice President

PRAYER
Praise the Lord with us as several Capitol Hill staffers who came to our Bible study this week gave their lives to Christ!
Pray with us, according to Isaiah 55:11, that the reading of God's Word in the nation's capital will not return empty but will accomplish the purposes of God.
Our efforts to bring the Word of God to bear on the hearts and minds of our public policy makers are only possible because wonderful friends like you stand with us both in prayer and in your generous financial support! Thank you!
