As America approaches the 250th anniversary of its founding, intercessors from across the nation are preparing to gather in Washington, D.C., for a unique Independence Day celebration focused on faith, gratitude, and national rededication.
Have you taken your place on the wall?
Hosted by Intercessors for America, Rededicate America will take place July 3-4 in the nation’s capital, bringing together Christians from sea to shining sea to reflect on God’s faithfulness throughout American history and consider the role believers can play in shaping the nation’s future. Held at the Museum of the Bible, IFA’s event is poised to be the only faith-based event in Washington, DC, on Independence Day.
The event comes at a significant moment. As communities across America prepare to commemorate the nation’s founding, many churches, ministries, and local leaders have also been organizing IFA rededication gatherings in their own cities and states. These events have encouraged Americans to remember God’s hand in the nation’s history, pray for their communities, and recommit themselves to biblical values and civic engagement.
One of the distinctive features of Rededicate America will be the opportunity to bring those stories together.
Attendees are invited to come not only as participants but also as representatives of what God is doing in their hometowns. Throughout the two-day gathering, stories and testimonies from local rededication efforts around the country will be shared, creating a powerful picture of believers from diverse backgrounds and regions united by a common desire to seek God’s guidance for the nation.
“There is something meaningful about gathering in Washington, D.C., on our nation’s birthday,” IFA President/CEO Dave Kubal shared. “People will be coming from communities large and small, carrying stories of prayer, renewal, and faithfulness.” Together, those stories tell a larger story about America and the role God’s people can play in her future.
The program will feature worship, prayer, historical reflection, testimonies, fellowship, and messages from respected national Christian leaders, including Dr. Jim Garlow, Dutch Sheets, IFA’s Dave and Kris Kubal, and other special guests and presentations.
Participants will have the opportunity to engage with key moments in America’s spiritual heritage, celebrate examples of God’s faithfulness throughout the nation’s history, and join together in prayer for the country’s future.
The timing of the gathering is particularly significant. Few places capture the American story quite like Washington, D.C., where monuments, memorials, and historic landmarks tell the story of the nation’s founding and development. Celebrating Independence Day in the nation’s capital provides a unique backdrop for reflecting on the sacrifices, convictions, and aspirations that shaped the United States.
For many attendees, the experience will extend beyond the event itself. Families and individuals will have the opportunity to visit historic sites, witness the Independence Day celebrations in Washington, and share in a national gathering that meaningfully connects faith, history, and citizenship.
Organizers hope the event will serve as both a celebration and a catalyst—encouraging attendees to return home inspired to continue strengthening their communities through prayer, service, and engagement.
As America enters the final year before its 250th anniversary, Rededicate America seeks to provide a space where believers can come together to remember the nation’s heritage, celebrate what God is doing today, and look ahead with hope for the generations to come.
At its heart, the gathering is about more than a single event. It is about bringing together the stories of ordinary Americans who are seeking God on behalf of their communities and recognizing that, when woven together, those stories form part of a much larger national story—one still being written.
