In an effort to deepen relationships and strengthen the intersection of faith and social issues, ELCA and Episcopal Church leaders met with more than 60 congressional offices in Washington, D.C., to advocate for federal funding to protect the environment and to highlight the impact climate change has on people living in poverty. The meetings followed Pope Francis’ Sept. 24 address to Congress on global hunger, poverty and caring for creation.
