Join leaders from Texas Impact for a practical\, action-oriented conversation about ways churches can play a role in democracy\, without risking their nonprofit status or their credibility. Learn about the “Faith Votes” model\, find toolkits and resources\, hear stories of successful faith-based democracy-strengthening programs…and make your plan to step into the public square with confidence! Leaders for all states and contexts are encouraged to attend.
