NHCLC, one of the nation’s largest Hispanic Christian networks representing over 1,500 affiliated churches, and Christians Engaged have announced a three-year partnership beginning in 2024.
The partnership with NHCLC President Rev. Samuel Rodriguez seeks to bridge language and cultural gaps. It also equips Hispanic believers to pray, vote, and engage in their communities as Americans approach the 2026 primaries and general election over the next three years.
Recent Pew Research Center findings show that Hispanics account for nearly half of the growth in eligible U.S. voters in recent years and are significantly younger than the broader electorate. However, voter turnout among Hispanics remains comparatively low.
“Together, we are building an outreach that will be unmatched,” said Bunni Pounds, founder and president of Christians Engaged. “We recognize the significant and growing number of Spanish-speaking Christians in the United States and globally.”
This is a strategic time to disciple and equip Hispanic believers for faithful civic participation,” Rev. Rodriguez said. “We are living in a defining moment for our nation.”
This partnership demonstrates our shared commitment to strengthening families, empowering churches, and renewing communities by equipping Hispanic Christians to lead with clarity and conviction.
“Our voices matter. Civic engagement is not separate from our faith; it is an extension of faithful stewardship and responsible citizenship,” he said.
Beginning in February 2026, Christians Engaged will expand its Hispanic and Latino outreach initiatives nationwide, including:
In December, Christians Engaged reached a major milestone by engaging more than one million Americans across all 50 states. This was accomplished through its advanced voter mobilization system, which delivers timely text and email reminders for state and national elections.
Year-round, Christians Engaged invites believers nationwide to take The Pledge, committing to pray for the nation, vote in every election, and engage in their communities. This encourages Christians to love their neighbors through informed civic participation.
