Joining with LCWR

LCWR Letter to Congress and LCWR Declaration of Commitment
LCWR (the Leadership Conference of Women Religious) has prepared an LCWR Declaration of Commitment building upon LCWR’s longstanding public witness and advocacy, reflecting the themes articulated in our “Response to These Times,” issued in January 2025, the LCWR Call, 2023-2028, and the LCWR Assembly Resolution 2025-2029.

The New Windsor leadership team has signed the declaration of commitment on behalf of our congregation and as individual elected members.

The LCWR leadership will deliver the LCWR letter to Congress accompanied by the LCWR Declaration of Commitment to Capitol Hill on Thursday, June 25 at noon.  We are asked to pray for this effort on June 25. Click here to download a prayer for this occasion.

100 Days of Prayer, Advocacy and Fasting before the US National Elections
Participation in the 100 Days of Prayer, Advocacy and Fasting is one of the ways LCWR Institutes make our public commitments. The fourth session invites LCWR Institutes to commit on one or more days during the 100 days leading up to the US National Elections in November 2026.

The New Windsor Presentation congregation has chosen September 8 as a day of prayer as part of the Hundred Days of Prayer initiative from LCWR. Check our event page for more details on this virtual prayer service.
