Christian Nationalism is on the rise—especially in Pennsylvania—threatening the heart of our faith and democracy. This retreat invites ELCA candidates for ministry and rostered leaders into a sacred space for truth-telling, healing, and hope. Together, we’ll explore how Christian Nationalism distorts the gospel, divides communities, and shows up in our local context—and how we can respond with love, justice, and public witness for the good of all.

Sponsored by the Allegheny Synod and Lutheran Advocacy Ministry in Pennsylvania (LAMPa).

In partnership with the Pennsylvania Human Relations Commission (PHRC).
