“The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim release to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those who are oppressed, and to proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord.” Luke 4:18–19

When he announced his ministry, Jesus proclaimed that a life of faith includes both righteousness and justice. In quoting the prophet Isaiah, he demonstrated that faithful living encompasses both personal and public elements. This compelling message frames PCG’s quest for the common good and defines our organizational purpose.

PCG recognizes that people of good will are called to the work of justice and righteousness and we believe that it is imperative for people of faith to participate actively in our political democracy. Therefore, we offer opportunities for you and others in your congregation to work with us to build the beloved community. We invite you to become an advocate and participate with us! Together, we can make a positive difference in our communities and advance the cause of justice in public life.

Whether you are a longtime activist or a newcomer to the idea of advocacy, we have tools, resources, and strategies that will expand your knowledge and increase your skills.
