On Election Day, a majority of Virginians tragically voted to insert an extreme and limitless legal right to abortion into our Commonwealth's constitution and eliminating the state's recognition of marriage as a sacred institution uniting one man and one woman.
As people of faith, resolved to live by God's divine and natural law, we recognize that fundamental truths, such as the human right to life and the sacredness of marriage, can never legitimately be put to a vote. Despite this tragic outcome, we resolve to continue speaking the truth with love. We persevere in faith and hope, and do not despair.
Across America, as here in Virginia, advocacy and courage are now needed more than ever. The conversion of nations, states, and peoples is only ever possible by the grace of God, to whom we turn with confidence and hope, now and always.
