Bush, thanking God for him "in regards to the issue of abortion" and praying for then-president-elect Barack Obama to "have a change of heart towards the issue of abortion." In 2009, BarlowGirl licensed its cover of "It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year" for the program Christmas at the White House: An Oprah Primetime Special, where Obama and his wife were interviewed. On November 10, 2016, BarlowGirl showed support for the "Love Trumps Hate" slogan: "Hillary's campaign said it best […] I think we can all agree on that one phrase." During the inauguration of Donald Trump on January 20, 2017, Alyssa Barlow spoke favorably of Barack Obama and his two terms as President. BarlowGirl visited Jerusalem in May 2018. Ministry partners From 2006 to the band's demise, BarlowGirl partnered with Mercy Ministries, an organization which seeks to help women. The charity, however, has faced some controversy in the United States and in Australia. Despite this, the partnership remained and led to Lauren choosing Mercy founder Nancy Alcorn to be one of the 59 contributors for her book Inspired by Tozer. Other ministry partners included the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association (including the related Samaritan's Purse and its Operation Christmas Child project), International Justice Mission, Joshua Harris and Joyce Meyer Ministries. Anti-abortion activism Following the release of How Can We Be Silent, BarlowGirl led a short-lived Never Silence Life campaign in 2009 to express their pro-life views and their concern for the protection of prenatal life.
