Last month, Concerned Women for America (CWA) of Louisiana traveled to Washington, D.C., for CWA’s “Gaining Ground” Summit. Our Louisiana delegation heard from several members of Congress who discussed legislation central to CWA’s core issues. The inspiring words of our very own Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson (R-Louisiana 4th), declaring, “Concerned Women for America is having its finest moment in history,” were a highlight.
While in D.C., we visited the staffs of Rep. Steve Scalise (R-Louisiana 1st) and Speaker Mike Johnson and the staffs of Sen. John Kennedy (R-Louisiana) and Bill Cassidy (R-Louisiana) to advocate for the MOMs Act and the Protection of Women in Olympic and Amateur Sports Act and to pray for them. We left Capitol Hill very encouraged by our meetings.
Our training day was designed to equip us to grow in our responsibilities as State Directors, Prayer/Action Chapter Leaders, Influencers, and members. It did just that! The guest speakers spoke with courage and supernatural resolve. Rep. Laurel Libby of Maine, Secretary of Education Linda McMahon, Vanessa Sivage, founder of Protect Texas Children, journalist Megan Basham, and writer and talk show host Eric Metaxas are among the speakers who bolstered our faith and emboldened our mission.
Congratulations to Erin Chautin, Louisiana Encourage-A-Legislator Coordinator, for taking home the National Encourage-A-Legislator Award. We are so blessed to have her on our CWA of Louisiana Team!
All of us left the Gaining Ground summit feeling God’s clear direction, renewed, energized, and ready to “enlarge our territory.”
