NATIONAL
RELIGIOUS GROUP EYES ELECTIONS
Washington, DC – The
National Pro-Life Religious Council, comprised of pro-life organizations from
many Christian denominations, has announced that it is fostering non-partisan
political activity among the nation’s Churches between now and Election Day.
Activities such as non-partisan voter registration and get-out-the-vote drives,
educational campaigns about the issues, and distribution of non-partisan voter
guides are among the priorities.
“Faith and politics do mix,”
asserted NPRC president Rev. Frank Pavone, “especially when certain politicians
permit the direct and deliberate destruction of children by abortion. For the
Church to be silent about this violence, or to instruct its people just to hope
and pray it goes away, is the height of irresponsibility. We will mobilize our
Churches to the fullest extent possible, and challenge voters with the
question, ‘If a politician cannot respect the life of a little baby, how will
he respect yours?’”

its member groups, and its election resources, can be found at www.NPRCouncil.org
