Dear John,

Besides the bride and groom, few people get to experience, celebrate, and participate in as many special moments of a wedding as the wedding photographer.

Wedding photographers have the privilege of telling a story about the couple’s love and taking part in the sacred ceremony when the groom and bride become husband and wife.

Because of her faith, Kentucky photographer and blogger Chelsey Nelson believes that weddings are a sacred union of one man and one woman. The photographs she takes and the blogs she writes celebrate each married couple and reflect her religious views about marriage.

The problem is that Louisville is interpreting its law to force Chelsey to photograph and blog about same-sex weddings if she does so for weddings between one man and one woman. And if Chelsey doesn’t participate in same-sex ceremonies, she could face financial penalties, court orders, and required compliance reports.

But the government should never have the power to punish someone for peacefully living and working consistently with their faith.

A generous Christian family believes so strongly that freedom must be defended that they have offered a $500,000 challenge grant to inspire you to give to protect Chelsey and others like her.

Will you further the impact of the grant with a tax-deductible gift today?

When we stand together, we can WIN!

John, overbearing government officials are using sexual orientation and gender identity (SOGI) laws like the one in Louisville to force people of faith into giving up their livelihood or violating their deeply held beliefs.

These attacks on religious freedom and the right to peacefully live and work according to your conscience affect all of us—whether you’re a medical professional, teacher, church attendee, or a small business owner like Chelsey.

But hope is not lost.

Some of your brave brothers and sisters in Christ—people like Chelsey—are taking a stand. They know that the Constitution protects our God-given freedoms—and they’re willing to fight for these freedoms in court.

ADF is defending these brave souls across the nation—even in the highest court in the land. But this work is not possible without God’s blessing (John 15:5) and the financial support of people like you.

Your help is needed now to stand alongside people of faith who are being punished for living out their deeply held beliefs.

When we unite together, we can defeat efforts to strip away our religious freedom.

Thank you for your generosity!
