Help Get Christians to the Polls
-

Elections are determined by those who show up. As we watch the nation we love slide further away from biblical values, it has never been more important for Christians to get to the polls.
-

According to Barna Research, it is estimated that 40-50 million of the 80 million Evangelical Christians in America DO NOT VOTE and as many as 25 million are not even registered to vote.
-

Considering what’s at stake, the Church must rise up and vote in greater numbers to win the war between good and evil that is raging across America. Scripture is clear that our battle is not against flesh and blood, nor is it a political war, but a spiritual war.
Strategies to Get Out the Vote
1) Make sure your family and friends are registered to vote.

4) Get involved with a local conservative organization.
Iron sharpens iron - nothing beats working and praying with other Christian Conservatives in this fight for the heart of our nation.
We’d love for you to attend our next meeting to learn more about issues and take action in Montgomery County and across Texas and the nation. Bring a friend!
There are several strong, conservative organizations across Montgomery County that provide opportunities to receive training, make your voice heard, and help elect strong Conservatives during election season. Visit our Conservative Calendar to find a meeting near you.
5) Pray with us.
Montgomery County Eagle Forum is praying for our state and nation to return to the ONE TRUE GOD. There are several ways to pray with us:
Attend our in-person prayer meetings, held 5:30-6:00 pm before our monthly meetings and led by MCEF Prayer Coordinator, John Feder. Join our army of prayer warriors as we petition the Lord for our nation.
Pray with us every Sunday at 6 PM on Zoom. To sign up, email your name and phone number to mceagleforum@gmail.com by Wednesday of the week you’d like to join. You’ll be added to the Zoom prayer group and receive a Zoom link on Sunday afternoons via text from MCEF Board Member, Pastor Jason Nelson.
Pray for our state and nation daily using our prayer guides. Prayer guides are available here.
6) Talk to your pastor about encouraging godly citizenship at your church.
Christians have a responsibility to take an active role in our communities and impact the culture. If the Christian voter bloc would rise up and vote, our nation would be saved!
U.S. Pastor Council is a great resource to share with your pastor. They believe that the Church has a biblical mandate to engage in the political and governmental affairs of this world in an obedient and faithful manner.
U.S. Pastor Council provides resources and events for pastors, including information on how to host a voter registration drive at your church.
MCEF Board Member, Pastor Jason Nelson, is the National Director of Expansion for U.S. Pastor Council. You can share the U.S. Pastor Council website with your pastor and contact them with questions.
