Time to Sign up for the 2021-2022 Encourage-A-Legislator Program
Maine 130th Legislative Session
“The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.” – James 5:16
It is time to recruit encouragers for our Concerned Women for America (CWA) of Maine Encourage-A-Legislator (EAL) Program for the 2021 Maine legislative session. We thank God for our wonderful volunteers who participate in our Encourage-A-Legislator (EAL) Program each year. Some of you have been with us from the beginning – thank you!
If you are new to CWA of Maine, EAL is a program focused solely on prayer and encouragement for our 186 state legislators. Your efforts encourage and build bridges with the conservative legislators as well as those who do not typically agree with CWA of Maine. Your benefit as an encourager is that you are energized and blessed to be a part of this effort.
Here are the details:
Starting the second week in January of 2021, our EAL Program participants pray for an assigned legislator every day of the legislative session. And once a month, participants send a CWA furnished postcard to their assigned legislator with encouraging words, letting them know that they are being prayed for daily.
This year we are asking participants to commit to the entire legislative session. The 130th session runs from January through June 2021 and reconvenes January through April 2022. Will you volunteer for this important prayer ministry?
Once signed up, participants receive an EAL packet, typically by the end of December. The packet includes instructions, a calendar mailing schedule, postcard suggestions, the name and biography of their assigned legislator, and 10 CWA of Maine EAL postcards.
Take Action:
- Sign up today by contacting Encourage-A-Legislator Coordinator, Catherine Carsley, by e-mail (cat555car@hotmail.com) or phone (207) 212-9394. Cathy will need your name, physical mailing address, phone number, e-mail address, and how many legislators you would like to encourage.
- Please forward this to friends and family who you think may be interested in participating.
Please Pray: Dear Father, please inspire CWA members and friends to become a pray-er and encourager for Maine’s legislative body. May each legislator be thoroughly encouraged and drawn closer to Yourself as they are encouraged and prayed for daily. All praise and thanks. In Jesus’ Name. Amen
We look forward to hearing from you!
