Heeding God's Call

Welcome

Heeding God’s Call is a new faith-based campaign to prevent gun violence. It unites people of faith in their sacred duty to protect their fellow men and women. It seeks to do so through helping local faith communities organize advocacy campaigns to pressure gun shops to adopt the Code of Conduct, providing support and resources for partnerships of multi-racial, interfaith, cross-denominational, faith communities to form and get active in support of gun violence prevention (on both social and legislative levels, serving as a ‘connection point’ for these congregations and partnerships to connect with, learn from and support the work of gun violence prevention organizations and efforts already in place, and advocating for the adoption of faith community Resolutions to take action at congregational and judicatory levels.
