Are you interested in praying for and encouraging a Virginia legislator while he or she makes huge decisions for us this year?
Encourage-A-Legislator (EAL) is a program which takes 1 Timothy 2:1&2 to heart, remembering that we are exhorted, “First of all that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men, for kings and all who are in authority, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence.” It is organized through Concerned Women for America of Virginia, but don’t worry, guys can (and do) participate too!
Those who participate are assigned a legislator to encourage and commit to:
* Pray for their legislator by name every day of the legislative session (Jan-Feb).
* Send out a postcard once a week to their legislator with an encouraging message or quote. (We will provide the postcards, instructions, and message ideas for the postcards once you sign up).
It isn’t that time consuming, but it is powerful and effective! Prayer is the most important aspect of everything we do, and our leaders need prayer warriors behind them. If you are interested in praying and providing support and encouragement to our legislators e-mail me at encourageva@gmail.com or give me a call at (434) 444-2292. I will mail you a packet with everything you will need.
Thank you!
