- Gun Violence
Now is the Time for Prayer and Action
Our hearts are heavy as we mourn the lives lost and the communities devastated by three mass shootings in one week. This violence is sickening. And it is a reminder of the dangerous toll guns take in our country every day because of permissive gun laws.
We are saddened by the terrible carnage of mass shootings and other forms of violence that results in the deaths of approximately 100 people every day in our country.
Gun Violence
Now is the Time for Prayer and Action
Drop-By Your Local Congressional Offices.
Act NowWe are angered by the rise of militarized hate in our nation, and the unwillingness of our leaders to act.
And we are resolved in our belief that the power of Love and the force of Truth can make change in this country.
We must change our laws and our culture to end the scourge of gun violence in all its forms, from mass shootings, suicide and domestic violence, to white supremacy and violence in our communities. To start, we need political leaders to stand up and vote for the small steps that can help stem the murders and terror from which none of us are immune.
Your senators are home for the August congressional recess right now and they need to hear from you. Will you join me in taking action to address the crisis of gun violence by going on a drop-by visit this month?
Can't go on a drop-by? Letters-to-the-editor are another powerful way to lift your voice. If you are willing to write a letter to your local paper, please contact media@fcnl.org and we will follow up with more information.
