INTRODUCING MORNING TEA

"When you look at the world today,

What is your point of view?"

Sadly, there are movements in our nation designed to permanently change the political, social, and moral landscape of our nation while also silencing America's Christians.

There are also movements which aren't garnering as much media coverage designed to empower believers to effect change in a positive direction.

Last weekend, (7/16/16) Together 2016, a massive rally made up of people from many races and denominations, was held on the National Mall in Washington, DC. Their rally's message was simply, "Jesus Changes Everything."

See their FaceBook page here for photos of the event:

Susan Harris, a spokesperson for the event said, "At a time in our nation when people are so divided, there's so much pain, there's so much hate and fear, we just really see now there's a need more than ever to come together."

Nick Hall, an event organizer said, "Moments of historic change are often marked by historic gatherings, so we really believe this a moment where our world can change."

In this pivotal 2016 election cycle, many nationwide networks of active Christians who are also patriotic Americans are coming together to confront our nation's spiritual decline.
 
Liberty Counsel's "PRAY & VOTE" campaign aims to bring healing to our broken nation. We plan to enroll at least 100,000 Christian patriots who will commit to PRAY for our nation and VOTE in this pivotal election!
 

Your prayers on behalf of our nation and its leadership are an irreplaceable component in redirecting America's course.

If you haven't already done so, click the link below or on the banner to tell America that YOU will rise up and be counted as a patriotic citizen who will  Pray and Vote

 www.libertyaction.org/201661/petition.asp

Here is how we, together, can right the course of America...
 
•ENROLL: By signing your commitment to Pray & Vote, you will be among many, many thousands of others who are committed to "take back America" through prayer and exercising the right to vote.
 
•ENCOURAGE: Ask your peers, family members, and fellow church or civic organization members to pray for our nation and for God's direction for our nation – and to become an informed voter who will cast a ballot on November 8th. Encourage others to sign Liberty Counsel's Pray & Vote commitment!
 
•ENGAGE: Learn where candidates stand on issues important to you! Make your voice heard. We must all turn out and VOTE!

Our nation was founded upon Christian principles of morality and virtue. These great principles were not separated from religion. Rather, they were inspired and undergirded by religion.
 
Thank you for standing with Liberty Counsel in this vital campaign to rally believers all across the nation.

God bless you and God bless America!
 
Mathew Staver, Founder and Chairman

Below is a message from a member

Sandy McCorvey

"I received a very clear message today. This morning at Mass, our pastor talked about prayer and gave a wonderful demonstration of The Lord's Prayer at work. This evening, Let Freedom Sing sang 4 patriotic songs, at the church of one of our LFS singers, focusing on God and country, and the pastor there spoke about love for our country, God, and church. He told the story of a man who, before the time of social media and cell phones, started a special prayer time for New York at noon. He invited many others to join him, but no one came. He prayed anyway. He did this every day at noon and for a while, still no one came. After a while, though, someone joined him, and then another, and then others, and then many, many more, and they were all praying for New York. With the current state of our nation, with so much hanging in the balance with the outcome of this election, I'm asking all of my FB friends to join me in stopping at noon every day and taking just a few minutes to pray very specifically for the restoration of our country. I hope you will all join me, and that you'll ask all of your family and friends to do the same, but whether or not anyone joins me, I will be praying at noon every day, asking God to heal our land." 

Let's spread the word and do our small part not only in spreading the message but by joining in this National Prayer Movement.

“Prayer is the rope that pulls God and man together. But, it doesn’t pull God down to us: It pulls us up to Him.” - Billy Graham

And sadly our Media sidesteps the reporting of these critical and unifying events.

PS I try to make a daily Mass in the AM so I will toss in a prayer for our country.

Amazing! The other day, out of the blue, I put my head down and starting begging God to please intervene in our upcoming election.  I voted for JFK. I watched the socialists take over the Democrat Party in the 70's and started voting for others. This is the 1st time I have actually prayed about my vote, even when Billy boy was chasing the skirts. I have turned my attention away from any news other than a quick read of the TU on e-edition mainly for the comics, sports and section B with all the killings of Black men by other Black men & ache for their souls. I would not want God's job!!!!

Day 1:  Had planned lunch with a friend already today, so did some Bible reading around 10:30 for this intention, then at 12:00 noon, in the restaurant, she and I prayed.  We asked that God would heal our land and said the Lord's Prayer together.  Nice way to start.  I'm setting my phone alarm for 12:00 noon every day.  I know that God is in control and with that thought, there is great comfort as we go through these trying times.
