Transforming lives with Good News in the Nation’s Capital
Jan 17, 2022
This is the week we’ve all been waiting for! We start with a focus on liberty and end with a focus on life.
Tuesday, our chairman, Mat Staver, will present the oral argument before the U.S. Supreme Court in the Shurtleff v. City of Boston case. Mat has prepared thoroughly for this precedent-setting case, which centers on free speech and the Christian flag. While Mat is the lead attorney on this case, he also has a legal team who assisted him in his preparation and will be with him in Washington this week.
We believe we will prevail in this case before the High Court, but we don’t take victory for granted, so we look to God for favor, knowing it is He who can turn hearts (Proverbs 21:1). This evening at 7 p.m. EST, we will host a Prayer & Candlelight Vigil, and we invite you to join us in person or on Facebook Live.
Tomorrow, we will hold another rally in front of the Supreme Court with a number of key speakers, including the plaintiff in this case, Hal Shurtleff of Camp Constitution, and Liberty Counsel attorneys Harry Mihet and Jonathan Alexandre. “Let Freedom Fly!” is our theme—which is appropriate for a flag case. The rally begins at 9 a.m., Tuesday, right before Mat argues the case at 10 a.m.
Let us agree together that our freedom to honor God in a public forum in America will prevail. To God be the glory!
Blessings,
Peggy Nienaber, Vice President
