Sen. Josh Hawley to Join Christian Persecution Summit

U.S. Senator Josh Hawley (R-MO) is slated to speak at the Christian Persecution Summit on October 30, 2025, at the U.S. Capitol in the Cannon Caucus Room. A steadfast champion of religious liberty, Senator Hawley has led congressional efforts to confront the global crisis of Christian persecution, including introducing S. Res. 327, a resolution condemning the persecution of Christians in Muslim-majority countries and urging the use of U.S. diplomatic resources to protect them worldwide. He has also co-sponsored resolutions denouncing violence against Christians in nations like Nigeria, where thousands have been murdered and millions displaced by extremists, and pressed the State Department to redesignate Nigeria as a Country of Particular Concern under the International Religious Freedom Act. Hawley’s advocacy underscores America’s founding commitment to faith, making him a pivotal voice in this fight for persecuted Christians.

At the summit, Senator Hawley will emphasize the moral imperative to defend Christians facing repression, violence, and discrimination abroad, drawing from his legislative leadership to call for stronger U.S. policies and international action. His address will inspire a renewed focus on solidarity, highlighting how faith communities and policymakers can unite against threats in regions from Sub-Saharan Africa to the Middle East. 

This summit will provide actionable insights into amplifying Christian voices and safeguarding religious freedom globally. The event, open to the public from 8:30 AM to 3:00 PM, promises transformative discussions on this urgent crisis.
