Dear John,
It’s not every day that God allows us to be a part of history in the making. But that’s exactly what happened when Coach Kennedy won at the Supreme Court.
It was just one year ago that Joe Kennedy returned to the sidelines as a Bremerton High School football coach.
After the game, he walked out to the 50-yard line, took a knee, and said a prayer of thanks.
That incredible moment was possible only because of your generous support.
While we celebrate this victory, you and I can’t forget that the enemies of faith aren’t slowing down their assault on religious freedom.
They’re unrelenting, and they won’t be deterred—not even when we defeat them at the Supreme Court.
And right now, they mean to silence the very shepherds who are trying to lead people of faith in these dark times.
You see, the same type of “woke” thinking that led to Coach Kennedy being fired all those years ago is now commonplace in cities throughout the country.
Four of our pastoral clients can all share firsthand how their local governments have criminalized compassion.
Pastor Chris, Pastor Jose, Pastor Howard and Pastor Mike are all under attack because they are ministering to those in need.
From feeding the hungry to housing the homeless to providing a place to worship, each of these pastors are feeling the wrath of their local leaders.
Pastors should be able to serve and minister to those in need without facing governmental interference.
That’s why First Liberty is fighting for these pastors and your support is needed now more than ever.
And right now, there has never been a better time to give.
North Texas Giving Day (NTGD) is two weeks away, Thursday the 19th—and now there’s a brand-new reason to join us in the fight to protect these pastors.
Every dollar you give right now through North Texas Giving Day will be multiplied in its impact thanks to a Bonus Pool supplied by the folks at NTGD.
And remember, you don’t have to be a Texan to take part, and you don’t need to wait until the 19th either—simply click here to give.
Take advantage of the multiplying of your gift and maximize your donation this North Texas Giving Day.
This is a vital opportunity to turn the tables on the enemies of faith.
Why do I say this?
By giving your best gift today, you’ll ensure that First Liberty Institute’s elite legal team is fully equipped to defend the growing number of faith leaders having their ministries “canceled” and being criminalized for their compassion.
Because of your generous support, First Liberty has been the tip of the spear throughout these attacks, fighting tirelessly for their right to lead people of faith in charity.
And the good news is, it’s working! Together, we’re changing the landscape of religious liberty.
Americans now have the opportunity to express their faith in ways they haven’t had in 50 years. That’s thanks to our hard-fought victories at the US Supreme Court and your generous support.
But to keep delivering these types of victories for your foundational freedoms, your gift is needed now more than ever.
First Liberty Institute doesn’t charge a single dime to the pastors, churches, ministries, and people of faith that we defend. These efforts are only possible with your support.
Don’t wait until North Texas Giving Day to donate. Make your early gift today and help us fight for the ones who continue to stand up for their faith in America.
I’m counting on you to take advantage of this giving day opportunity and make this our most impactful year yet!
Yes, I will make my best gift today »
Grateful for you,
Kelly
