WASHINGTON, D.C. -- Today, Family Research Council and FRC Action will hold the fourth annual Pray Vote Stand Summit, which replaced FRC Action's previous flagship event, the Values Voter Summit. The Pray Vote Stand Summit will gather Christians from across the nation to pray for our nation, Israel, and the upcoming election. In addition to addressing policy issues of concern to SAGE Cons (Spiritually Active, Governance Engaged Conservatives), the Summit will include various discussions with political and theological experts on topics such as Understanding the Times, Israel: Past, Present and Future, and A Conversation about Global Governance and the WHO, to name just a few. The Summit will take place at the Omni Shoreham Hotel in Washington, D.C., October 3-6, 2024.

Family Research Council President and FRC Action Chairman Tony Perkins commented:

"The cultural warning lights are flashing brightly on our nation's dashboard. America is in trouble. That's why I'm calling on Christians to come to Washington, D.C., for the Pray Vote Stand Summit--not as spectators, but as participants appealing to heaven, asking God to rend the heavens and come down (Isaiah 64:1).

"In just the past two months, there have been two assassination attempts on former President Donald Trump. Violence has gripped our nation as lawlessness invades our streets and institutions. Neither political party is championing life or protections for the unborn. Israel--our longtime friend and ally in the Middle East--is approaching one year at war since the October 7 Hamas terrorist attacks, and U.S. support is tepid.

"Only a return to God will heal our nation. This fall election is crucial, but it won't solve our nation's sin problem. It may even worsen it. The solution is deeper--it's spiritual. We must restore a healthy reverence for God in our society, which will lead to respect for the lives of others and bring back the security and stability our country once knew," concluded Perkins.
