Join Thousands of Churches this Fall for an Unprecedented Weekend of Service

Faith in Action is embraced by churches year-round, but many choose to participate on National Faith in Action Day; this year the date is October 11, 2009. On this day, many churches will cancel their church service in order serve their community.
