Dear John,
What an important time to stand together for religious freedom!
The new year has brought fresh opportunities to defend faith, and I'm so grateful you're part of this mission with us.
Watch this quick message on what lies ahead in 2026:

For years, you have stood up for faith. You’ve made sure that First Liberty is first in the fight when religious freedom is threatened.
And thanks to your faithful support, we’ve won critical victory after critical victory.
Now, it’s clear that God is providing abundant opportunities for us to defend and expand religious liberty all across our nation.
But there is still much work to do if we are going to turn these opportunities into a reality.
That’s why as we begin the year, I’m asking you to pray for three things:
- For First Liberty clients who continue to withstand attacks on faith like Pastor Chris Avell, teacher Marisol Castro and physician’s assistant Valerie Kloosterman.
- For the attorneys and staff here at First Liberty as we continue to lead the fight for religious freedom for all Americans.
- The Religious Liberty Commission as it discusses and finalizes its recommendations for securing religious freedom for generations to come.
With your prayers, support, and God’s favor, we can protect your First Liberty for our children and grandchildren.
Grateful for you,
Kelly
Kelly Shackelford, Esq. President, CEO & Chief Counsel First Liberty Institute
