Christians: Speak Up and Shape the Future of Virginia

Virginia stands at a crossroads after recent elections. While change is in the air nationally, our state faces unique challenges with its current legislative makeup. The moment calls for people of faith to engage thoughtfully and purposefully in shaping Virginia’s future.

Lieutenant Governor Winsome Sears recently shared a compelling vision on *Speak Up Virginia* about faith-based civic engagement. Her message emphasized how faith-informed voices can help build stronger communities and ensure all Virginians are represented in policy discussions.

Building Momentum Together

Recent elections have shown that voters care deeply about their communities’ direction. Yet there’s untapped potential in our democracy – many citizens, including people of faith, remain on the sidelines. As Lieutenant Governor Sears noted, “Politicians can’t read, but they can count.” Every voice matters in the democratic process.

A Call to Thoughtful Action

Drawing from Psalm 133:1, Lieutenant Governor Sears emphasized how unified, purposeful engagement can create positive change. She highlighted several key areas where citizen involvement makes a difference:

  • Educational policy and parental involvement
  • Family support initiatives
  • Community well-being
  • Civic participation

Practical Steps Forward

The upcoming General Assembly session offers concrete opportunities for engagement. Consider:

  • Reaching out to your representatives
  • Attending local government meetings
  • Staying informed about legislation affecting your community
  • Participating in constructive dialogue about Virginia’s future

Stay Engaged and Informed

The Family Foundation offers resources to help citizens stay connected with legislative developments. Visit familyfoundation.org for updates and opportunities to engage in Virginia’s civic life.

Together, we can help build a Virginia that honors its diverse communities while upholding values that strengthen families and neighborhoods. Let’s work together to create positive change through thoughtful civic engagement.
