“It is a Christian obligation to vote, and more than that, it is the church’s responsibility to help get souls to the polls.” - Presiding Bishop Michael Curry
It’s time to get actively involved in the 2024 elections. The campaigns are in high gear; and as you know, there is so much at stake in this year's elections, locally and nationally. What can you do to get involved? Here is the answer.
The Commission for Intercultural Ministries will present a webinar on Thursday, September 5, at 7PM Pacific time highlighting the Episcopal Office of Government Relations (OGR) Vote Faithfully Election Engagement 2024 Toolkit. Tune in to learn how you can help:
● Run Elections
● Register voters
● Mobilize - Help your community members access polling stations on Election Day
● Communicate - Use common church platforms for quick and easy communication to encourage your community to get out the vote
● Advocate for voting rights
● Plus - Prepare for Vote Faithfully Sunday, November 3, 2024, including quotes for thought and communal reflection, music, prayers
I urge you to attend and become engaged in this year's elections.
“Participating in our country’s political life isn’t just about casting our own vote – it requires working together so we can all vote and vote faithfully. There are many ways to get involved – from participating ourselves to supporting others in our congregations and communities. We can all play a role in getting “souls to the polls!” - OGR
