On September 18, Christian communities across the country will unite against gun violence by leading services of Lament, Repentance, and Action. Christians United Against Gun Violence is asking congregations to directly address the gun violence pandemic during their Sunday September 18 worship services, similar to the widespread incorporation of World Communion Sunday.

TDBI and Faith Leaders for Ending Gun Violence are excited to be part of this movement encouraging churches to undertake the important work of raising a united voice against gun violence.

Christians United Against Gun Violence have assembled a number of helpful resources to support congregations as they plan for September 18 and beyond:

• Conversations with Children
• Music Recordings
• Sermons and Reflections
• Worship and Liturgy

Join the movement against gun violence with other Christians by creating a service for your community and inviting other nearby communities to join in. Get in touch with Christians United Against Gun Violence online.
