Spring/Summer 2026 Issue
Every generation is the founding generation — from those who wrote about religious freedom centuries ago to the people working today. The founders did not finish America. They started it, and then they handed us the pen.
As we mark the 250th anniversary of our country, our Spring/Summer 2026 magazine invites you to participate in our Founders Wall, submitting stories that matter to you. Listen to people who shared ways to make a difference during our summer luncheon. Hear first-hand accounts of visits to sacred Indigenous land that is currently under threat. See how people are banding together to create collective power in local groups. Consider what you can do to protect the ballot this election year.
