Actions Churches Can Take

Washington State faces unprecedented challenges to faith, family, and freedom. Over 1.7 million conservatives in our state need clear direction and a united voice. The Church is called to be salt and light—loving God, loving our neighbors, and standing firm on biblical truth in every sphere of culture.

Equip Your Church—Be a Defender!
Practical Actions Every Washington Church Can Take to Impact the Public Square

Now is the time for the church to boldly defend and advance biblical values in our communities and in Olympia.
