Evangelical Christians Coming Together to Call for Reform Rooted in Biblical Values
(BRONX, N.Y.) As momentum for broad immigration reform continues to build in the evangelical community, leaders from New York City are meeting tonight to pray for commonsense immigration reform.

Evangelical Christians are meeting as part of “Pray4Reform: Gathered Together in Jesus’ Name,” a week of prayer that continues the Evangelical Immigration Table’s ongoing Pray for Reform campaign.
