Ministers, Church Leaders Gather for Pastors’ Day at the Capitol

Church Ambassador Network, ,

On Thursday ministers and church leaders from across Arkansas gathered for Pastors’ Day at the Capitol.

Family Council and its Church Ambassador Network initiative sponsored this excellent event.

Pastors’ Day at the Capitol gives church leaders and opportunity to worship in the capitol rotunda, hear from elected officials, and pray over the state’s policymakers — and it’s one of the best things we do all year.

The Church Ambassador Network is a nonpartisan initiative of Family Council designed to build relationships between ministry leaders and community leaders. Our goal is for elected officials to see churches as a resource that can address many of the problems that communities face. This year the Church Ambassador Network has hosted different meetings between ministers and elected officials to help further that goal.

We are pleased to bring ministers and elected officials together for this excellent event, and we look forward to hosting other gatherings with ministers and elected officials in the near future.

Above: Gov. Sanders speaks to those gathered at Pastor’s Day at the Capitol on April 16, 2024.

On Tuesday Family Council hosted Pastor’s Day at the Capitol 2024. Church leaders and elected officials gathered in the Rotunda of the Arkansas Capitol Building for prayer and worship and to hear special messages.

This annual, nonpartisan event focuses on worshiping God, praying for our leaders, ministering to those in authority, fostering better relationships between ministers and legislators, practicing responsible citizenship, and learning how congregations can do the same.

Imagine the echo of worship—the prayers of godly men and women—the Gospel openly proclaimed in Arkansas’ most prominent place—the State Capitol Building!

That’s why we tell people Pastor’s Day at the Capitol is one of the best things we do all year.

We appreciate everyone who joined us for this special day — especially Bishop Silas Johnson, Treasurer Larry Walther, Sen. Kim Hammer, Gov. Sarah Sanders, and our many other guests. We look forward to seeing everyone again next year!
