#pray4reform 92 days of prayer & action to pass immigration reform As Christians, we are specifically called to pray “for kings and all those in authority” (1 Timothy 2:1-2). That command applies whether we voted for a particular legislator or not. As Bible teacher Dr. Barbara Williams-Skinner says, “There is a direct relationship between the kind of planet we live in and how often we talk to God about leaders. Their decisions can bring joy or conflict; peace or pain; poverty or prosperity to us. To put it another way, we have the kind of leaders we pray for!” Text “immigration” to 877877

EVANGELICAL IMMIGRATION TABLE As evangelical Christian leaders, we call for a bipartisan solution on immigration that: Respects the God-given dignity of every person Protects the unity of the immediate family Respects the rule of law Guarantees secure national borders Ensures fairness to taxpayers Establishes a path toward legal status and/or citizenship for those who qualify and who wish to become permanent residents We urge our nation’s leaders to work together with the American people to pass immigration reform that embodies these principles and that will make our nation proud.
