(I have never reposted something like I am doing this - but this is the best opportunity our persecuted brothers and sisters have ever had ... thus am re-posting & asking you to share with everyone, then watch the livestream- AND PRAY FOR THE PERSECUTED CHURCH - that this could be moment of release.)
IMPORTANT / URGENT / MAJOR INTERNATIONAL EVENT/ BEING LIVESTREAMED: For the sake of persecuted Christians around the globe (and there are more at this time than any time in history), please help spread the word of what is happening on Monday. For the FIRST TIME EVER ”“ ON THE WORLD STAGE a President of the US is going to call attention to this atrocity ”“ at the UN ”“ during the opening of General Assembly. Why is this important?
Once a year (this time each September) the heads-of-state (presidents, prime ministers & kings) come from all over the world to the United Nations in New York City. There are 193 Member Nations in the UN. Beginning this Monday ”“ Sept 23 ”“ leaders from around the globe (with large delegations) will converge upon the UN. (Upper East Side Manhattan becomes practically gridlocked due to blocked streets and thousands of security personnel.)
Our President will speak on Monday about religious persecution. (He will frame it widely ”“ referring not merely to Christians. However, be assured that the vast majority of those being persecuted are Christians.)
Why is the location and timing of this speech so important? Because many of the religious persecutors are "state actors,” that means countries. And those state (country) leaders will be present at the UN at this time. This is an unprecedented moment in history. No president has ever done this ”“ with this timing ”“ on the world stage ”“ with the "bad actors” at the UN!
President Trump's UN speech will be this Monday, September 23, 2019 at 11:30am Eastern; 10:30am Central; 9:30am Mountain; 8:30am Pacific.
A number of evangelicals have been invited by the White House to attend. Rosemary and I are part of that delegation.
We encourage you to tune in to watch the speech. Please, spread the word to every person you can. Please share this on all social media. Email and text your friends. And pray. Then pray some more. Pray for the persecuted. Pray for the President. They will be livestreaming the speech, at www.whitehouse.gov/live/
Statement from The White House Press Secretary
"President Donald J. Trump will host and provide keynote remarks at the Global Call to Protect Religious Freedom event on Monday, September 23, 2019, at the United Nations Headquarters. Vice President Mike Pence will also be in attendance and will introduce President Trump. The President is working to broaden international support for ongoing efforts to protect religious freedom in the wake of increasing persecution of people on the basis of their beliefs and a growing number of attacks on and destruction of houses of worship by state and non-state actors. The President will call on the international community to take concrete steps to prevent attacks against people on the basis of their religion or beliefs and to ensure the sanctity of houses of worship and all public spaces for all faiths.”
PLEASE FORWARD THIS.
