Fidelity month promotes families, communities

Fidelity Month promotes the importance of fidelity to God, spouses and families, and to country and communities.

KANSAS CITY, Kan. — Among all the flags in the news of late, it’s only the Fidelity Month flag that promotes a national movement begun in 2023 by Robert P. George to affirm the importance of fidelity to God, spouses and families, and to country and communities.

Flying the Fidelity Month Flag (available to buy at: fidelitymonth.com) is only one way to support the movement.

“Fidelity Month is a movement and an invitation to all Americans of all faiths to rededicate ourselves to the core values that used to be sources of strength and unity in our pluralistic society,” said George, a McCormick Professor of Jurisprudence and director of the James Madison Program in America ideals and Institutions at Princeton University in New Jersey.

There have been some national events this year for Fidelity Month, notably a day of fasting and prayer on June 24. If you missed the day, you can still fast and pray the prayer on your own. The all-faiths prayer can be found on the website.

And there’s still time to join the webinar “Fidelity’s Future: A Fidelity Month Conversation with Young Leaders,” on June 29. To register for the webinar, and for more information, go to the website at: fidelitymonth.com.
