Dear John,
For the past 30 years, we have labored tirelessly and endlessly to reach this unique moment in history.
But rather than focus on all the outrage and despair many of us are feeling right now, I want to start out this holiday season by sharing with you a somewhat unconventional message of hope and encouragement regarding the future of religious liberty in our country.
It’s a message I think you deserve to hear and hopefully one that will inspire you to keep supporting First Liberty’s efforts, especially given what’s at stake in our country right now.
As you know, throughout all of 2019 God graciously opened up incredible opportunities to restore religious liberty in America. And thanks to your dedicated financial support, First Liberty achieved multiple historic and important precedent-setting victories that are safeguarding you and your family’s right to live out your faith for generations to come.
But after three decades of being on these frontline battles, I can personally promise you that things are about to get a WHOLE LOT WORSE before they get a whole lot better (the “unhinged” rhetoric surrounding this current election cycle guarantees that!).
Why? Because what’s at stake is the future direction of our country. And make no mistake, anti-faith activists and other radical groups have a clear, All Out battle plan for winning the “war on faith,” which is to:
- DISTRACT us from our shared vision to restore religious freedom in America.
- DETRACT from our string of achievements in defense of the First Amendment.
- DESTROY the personal reputation, livelihood and the lives of people of faith.
Enemies of religious liberty are declaring an ALL OUT war on faith.
Will you go ALL IN with First Liberty to reclaim our First Freedom?
GIVE NOW and maximize your impact thanks to our
Year-End $300,000 Challenge Grant.
So what’s to come in this new decade ahead? Please take just a moment to watch this video:
Let me reassure you that in looking ahead to 2020, not only will we see more “first fruits” of last summer’s historic Bladensburg Peace Cross victory, but we’ll also have a chance to reclaim more religious liberty than we’ve ever experienced in our lifetimes with potential upcoming victories in our Coach Joe Kennedy and Sweet Cakes by Melissa cases.
Of course, none of these cases — and none of our attorneys — could make any difference in the world without you.
With First Liberty, you are a true Force Multiplier!
Because for every $1 you give, we’re able to multiply that into $6 worth of free legal services from our exclusive network of volunteer attorneys...the “best of the best” from the top law firms in nation (like Jones-Day, who helped us win our Bladensburg case).
That’s why I’m counting on YOU John, to go ALL IN with us to reclaim religious liberty in 2020.
When you donate to First Liberty, you’ll see a return on your investment that lasts beyond your lifetime. And by God’s grace, we can continue to deliver results and maintain our unprecedented 90% win rate across all religious freedom matters in our schools, our military, our local houses of worship and communities — and in our own faith-run businesses.
Together, we can turn the page to a new chapter for our country...to a new dawn for religious freedom and prosperity to be enjoyed by your children and grandchildren.
Will 2020 be the turning point for religious freedom in America? Or will 2020 mark the end, the last vestige of religious liberty in our country?
I for one, see the hope that’s ahead. I pray that you see it, too...and that you continue to see First Liberty as your greatest hope for victory.
Will you consider donating at this critical moment and help us achieve our $2.8M year-end goal?
Yes, I will make a financial contribution today.
Gratefully,
Kelly
