This is the post denominational era of the church.

We humbly request that You open our eyes to our individual and collective responsibilities as care givers to those in poverty and distress. We seek Your forgiveness for both ourselves and our church for letting our government take care of these duties. 

So then you are no longer strangers and aliens, but fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God, built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus Himself being the cornerstone, in whom the whole structure, being joined together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord.  In Him you also are being built together into a dwelling place of God by the Spirit. Ephesians 2:19-22 

“The foundation of all progress, all government and all civilization…is religion. Our country is not lacking in material resources…It cannot be said to be lacking in intelligence. But certainly it has need of a greater practical application of the truths of religion. It is only in that direction that there is hope of the solution of our economic and social problems. Whatever inspires and strengthens the religious belief and religious activity of the people, whatever ministers to their spiritual life is of supreme importance. Without it all other efforts will fail. With it, there lies the only hope of success. The strength of our country is the strength of its religious convictions.”   

President Calvin Coolidge – September, 1923
