WE ARE
PRAYERS FOR LIBERTY

BECAUSE OUR FAITHS AND OUR DEMOCRATIC TRADITIONS COMPEL US

A 250th Anniversary Prayer Gathering and March for Democracy and Justice

Friday, July 3, 2026

9:00 AM Lexington Battle Green;
11:30 AM First Parish Church, Arlington

As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the United States, we invite people of all faiths and of goodwill to gather in prayer, song, and community, and to walk together in support of democracy, justice, and liberty. We will also read from the Declaration of Independence.

At this milestone in our nation’s history, we are called not only to celebrate, but also to act. We are deeply grateful for the blessings of our democracy, and we recognize that some of our nation’s core commitments need our renewed attention and care: justice and kindness, due process and the rule of law, voting rights, immigrant rights, and the dignity of every person.

Join Prayers for Liberty as we gather on the Lexington Battle Green and then walk together to Arlington, lifting up these beloved American principles in a spirit of hope, faith, and nonpartisan civic responsibility.

This gathering follows the spirit of our Prayers for Liberty gatherings and walks from last year.
