Religious Leaders on Stage at VOICE Action

I participated in an "action" to pressure banks and political leaders to help with housing crisis in Prince William county. The organization does great work, but I really appreciate being part of such a diverse group. Over 40 different faith communities united in common causes. Senator Mark Warner and representatives from Bank of America and JP Morgan Chase spoke and answered questions from religious leaders. Also speaking were three home owners with personal stories about foreclosures and the effect on the community. Almost half of the homes in Prince William County are under water.

Here are two descriptions in the press:
