Ecumenical Discussion about Independence Day and the role of Churches in celebrating the 250th birthday of America

As we approach Independence Day and the national "America 250" commemorations, many pastors and church leaders are wrestling with important questions:

How do we give thanks for our nation without confusing love of country with devotion to God?

How do we celebrate the gifts of our democracy while also telling the truth about our history?

How do we lead worship that is faithful to Jesus Christ in a cultural moment when Christian symbols, language, and patriotism are often intertwined?

These are not easy questions, and none of us needs to navigate them alone.

Whether you are planning a July 5 worship service, considering how your congregation will engage the America 250 celebrations, or simply seeking conversation partners, we invite you to join us for an online ecumenical conversation to review resources and learn from one another.
