Great news! City officials in Bryan, Ohio agreed to drop all criminal
charges against Pastor Chris Avell of Dad's Place Church.

Pastor Chris faced nearly two dozen charges. Why? Because he opened
his church 24/7 to serve and minister to anyone who needed it.

Thank you for standing with Pastor Chris. Because of your support, he
no longer faces the specter of going to jail just for opening his
church doors.

Together, we have let the City of Bryan know that compassion should
never be criminalized.

Getting the criminal charges dropped was a critical first step. It
means the city understands it can no longer use the police to bully
Pastor Chris. But the legal fight in Bryan, Ohio is not over yet.

You and I must make sure that Dad's Place can freely serve its
community according to its beliefs without being harassed.

Right now, First Liberty attorneys are negotiating with the city.
We're making sure Pastor Chris can continue using Dad's Place to
minister to those in need 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

During the next phase of this legal battle-Pastor Chris still
needs your help.

You have made the difference in this fight through your prayers and
your financial support.

It's time to continue fighting the good fight for Pastor Chris.

Can he count on you? You can help him achieve that final legal
victory...a win that will set him free to do what he does best:
share God's Words and be a light to those around him.

Yes, I will stand with Pastor Chris Avell now »
