"After
I looked things over, I stood up and said to the nobles, the officials and the
rest of the people, 'Don’t be afraid of them. Remember the Lord, who is great
and awesome, and fight for your families, your sons and your daughters, your
wives and your homes.'"
Nehemiah
4:14 (NIV)

After spending time in corporate prayer, we will lobby our lawmakers.

Our country, our state, our churches, and our homes are in
crisis. Our western civilization is dying along with the values that
made America great.
Recent events in the news have been beyond appalling. We desperately need
revival in our land.
This sense of helplessness has led us to believe that perhaps we
need to focus on the most powerful authority - our Almighty God - and
lobby Him concerning our woes.
Charles Grandison Finney, probably the greatest revival preacher there
ever was said, "There are two kinds of means requisite to promote a
revival: the one to influence men, the other to influence God. The truth
is employed to influence men, and prayer to move God."
Will you join CHAP HELP Day, our Home Education Lobby Program, as we
assemble to pray?
Scriptures instruct:
"I
urge, then, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercession and
thanksgiving
be
made for all people — for kings and all those in authority, that we
may live
peaceful
and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness."
I
Timothy 2:1,2
We need to do exactly that.

Driving directions are here. All visitors will be processed through metal detectors. It is best to come in through the Capitol steps along 3rd Street which leads right onto the Main Rotunda.
CHAP will have tables and kiosk where you can sign in. It is our way of knowing that you participated, and that someone reached out to your legislator, or whoever was assigned to you and your family to lobby.
At the end of the CHAP Prayer Rally, everyone is encouraged to meet with your local Representative and/or Senator concerning legislations that we ask them to vote on and pass. But first, we would like to take a group picture to remember your visit. Please help us assemble for a snappy shot at the steps.
CHAP will have folders of information to assist you in reaching out to your lawmakers concerning the Pennsylvania Parental Rights Protection Act (HB1512) and Convention of States (HR63). We are also giving key members a copy of the video, Overruled. If you're not familiar with it, there are several clips on youtube like this one.
For lunch, you have the option of packing food for your family and eating by the cafeteria on the East Wing rotunda. Food is pricey but is also available for purchase.
