Dear John,

<p>On Wednesday, the world changed. Charlie Kirk was shot while answering a student&rsquo;s question on a university stage.</p> <p>Today, on this Sunday, we gather not only in shock, but in prayer and grief.</p> <p>Charlie&rsquo;s wife, Erika, is walking through unimaginable sorrow. Their two small children face life without their father. Students and staff who witnessed the violence at Utah Valley University are still shaken. And across our nation and the world, millions remain in mourning.</p> <p>CitizenGO members are uniting in prayer from every continent. From Europe to South America, from Africa to the Asia Pacific, and across the United States, our global family is lifting Erika, the children, and all who were present that day before the Lord.</p> <p>But I am also asking for your response.</p> <ul> <li><strong>Do you know someone who attended the Utah Valley University event?</strong> If so, please share their name so we can pray for them.<br /><br /></li> <li><strong>Have you already seen something good come from this tragic event?</strong> Share your testimony so others can be encouraged.<br /><br /></li> <li><strong>Do you feel this is a wake-up call for our nation?</strong> Tell us how God is stirring you to action.<br /><br /></li> </ul> <p>This Sunday, please stop and pray. Pray for Erika&rsquo;s strength. Pray for peace to surround her children. Pray for healing for those traumatized by the shooting. Pray for our nation, wounded by hatred and violence, that truth and freedom will endure.<br /><br /><img src="[link removed] 2025-09-11 5.47.55 PM.png" alt="Screenshot 2025-09-11 5.47.55 PM.png" height="221" width="289" /><br /></p>
We are more than in shock. We are praying. We are grieving. And we are standing together, with Erika, her children, and with every conservative voice under threat.
