ON SUNDAY JULY 19, TEACH GOOD TROUBLE
Hosting Your Own GTLO PREACH Event
Faith organizing has always played a critical role in the fight for civil rights. PREACH! Events will unite interfaith clergy across the country to inspire community members about the importance of civic engagement and voting rights. Hosts can deliver a sermon and conduct voter education/registration to uplift the mission of the John Lewis weekend of action. If Sunday does not align with your faith’s day of worship, please feel free to move your PREACH! Event to another day.

Important Note
A core principle behind all Good Trouble Lives On events is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values and to act lawfully at these events. Weapons of any kind, including those legally permitted, should not be brought to events. This action is non-partisan and does not support nor endorse any particular candidate or ballot measure.
