This is an important week as we focus our prayers for the nation and for our leaders.

Rooftop Prayer is an annual event that takes place in many countries. Our focus in Washington, D.C., will be Capitol Hill. We thank the Lord for opening special rooms in the Capitol building for us to gather. Meeting in such a strategic and historic place for prayer over Capitol Hill and its influence over our nation brings a beautiful solemnity and significance to this prayer gathering.

After Rooftop Prayer sets our focus, we will continue with National Day of Prayer events and much more as the week progresses. See more details below, and please join us to pray from your homes, offices, churches, wherever you may be, this week. We know that “where two or three are gathered together in My name, I am there in the midst of them” (Matt. 18:20).

Our new breakfast Bible Study began Friday morning. Interns and staffers are tackling the topic of systematic theology. Also, the Monday Club study continues in the Gospel of John, and in the Tuesday evening study, Exodus is our focus.

The Faith & Liberty team participated in the closing ceremony of the 35th annual U.S. Capitol Bible Reading Marathon. Toward the end of the 90-hour marathon, we read the book of Revelation as a group and sang God Bless America. That’s a wrap for this year! We were thankful to reach hundreds of people who walked by and some who stopped to read God’s Word.

What a day of fellowship we had Saturday at the clothing swap! Our Ministry Center opened its doors to help women congressional staffers and interns who work on Capitol Hill to shop for second-hand clothing on a budget. We enjoyed popcorn and lemonade and made new friends, which also gives us an opportunity to invite them to church or our Bible studies.

COMING SOON
