Please consider joining the Washington Inter-religious Staff Community and FCNL as we hold Congress in the light in peaceful, prayerful opposition to the deceptively named Better Care Reconciliation Act (BCRA). This bill would decimate Medicaid that helps millions access healthcare as well as end coverage for millions more.
We'll be starting our prayer vigil Wednesday, June 28th at 4:00 PM in front of the Capitol complex across the street from SCOTUS. We will be there for 23 hours. I'll be there for the start of the graveyard shift at midnight. Anytime you can make it would be a great help!! Please sign up!!

Dear Friends;
Friends and Friends Committee on National Legislation are taking action to save Medicaid, and we need your help. FCNL and the Interfaith Health Coalition are holding a 24 hour prayerful vigil on the Capitol Lawn, and we need Friends' presence during any or all of the vigil!
Can you please help us spread this news far and wide amongst Friends in the meeting, and beyond?
Interfaith Health Care Vigil
June 28th, 2017 at 4 pm-3 pm Thursday June 29th, 2017
Capitol Lawn Area 9
The Senate will be holding twenty hours of required debate on the Better Care Reconciliation Act of 2017 (BCRA) and we want senators to know that we are not only watching how they will vote, but also praying for the millions of people who will be harmed if this horrible legislation passes. Thousands will lose their lives and millions more will lose access to care they so desperately need.
Get up to date information is it unfolds here: www.fcnl.org/medicaidvigil/<http://www.fcnl.org/medicaidvigil/ >
We need Quakers to be present, to pray and witness and put our bodies and voices in front of Congress as we advocate against this monstrous bill.
During this time, we will hold a vigil with prayer, testimony, and protest on the Capitol lawn between the Supreme Court and the Capitol Building.
• We are asking local Friends to come out in force and join us on the Capitol Lawn
• For Friends coming from afar or for those who need to take rest and shelter during the evening of the vigil, Friends Meeting of Washington has volunteered the meetinghouse for people who wish to sleep at any point during the vigil. RSVP to cashley@fcnl.org<mailto:cashley@fcnl.org > if you need evening shelter 9 pm-7 am.
• We are looking for donations of food for vigil participants. This can include casseroles, salads, fruit, bread and cheese, etc. Donations can be dropped off at FCNL.
• We especially need Friends able and willing to participate in the vigil between 12 am and 6 am, as Capitol police require we have an active presence on the lawn.
• Stories, singing, and prayers are needed. FRIENDS ARE NEEDED
Contact Christine Ashley for more information about how you can participate. cashley@fcnl.org<mailto:cashley@fcnl.org > or text 515-864-9747

One of the most calming and powerful actions you can do to intervene in a stormy world is to stand up and show your soul. Struggling souls catch light from other souls who are fully lit and willing to show it.
