And Campaign brings Civic Revival from sea to shining sea
On debate night in America, you have a chance to watch political conversations of a much more uplifting type.
This week, we’re calling attention to our Civic Revival tour stops in the D.C. area and in San Diego.
And Campaign’s founder and president Justin Giboney traveled to meet with our DMV chapter and folks from around the D.C. metro area, featuring a conversation on juvenile justice with Steve Park, Dr. Bobby Manning and Dr. Cyril Pickering. You can watch the DMV tour stop below.
Meanwhile, we had two tour stops in San Diego. Pastor
hosted a panel discussion on immigration with Ruslan, Christina Liao, and Dan Toro. You can watch that conversation below.Finally, Pastor Chris and Justin came together in San Diego for a conversation on politics in the church with guests Pastor Terry Brooks and Pastor Evan Wickham. You can watch that tour stop below.
We invite everyone who can make it to our capstone tour stop, the Faith & Politics Forum, in And Campaign’s home city of Atlanta on October 13 to register for the event here.
