California Family Minute
January 18, 2011
ATTENTION: PASTORS, CHURCH LEADERS, AND ATTORNEYS!
The Alliance Defense Fund and California Family Council are bringing a professional seminar to Sacramento on Friday, January 28. The Regional Litigation Academy will provide pastors and church employees with an educational update of constitutional rights, religious speech censorship, and tactics for protecting churches from legal threats.
In addition, the Alliance Defense Fund offers this seminar for Continuing Legal Education (CLE) units. The Alliance Defense Fund (ADF) has quickly grown to become an international force for the protection of religious liberty. The Regional Litigation Academy will provide attorneys with sound legal updates and strategies for protecting religious organizations from undue and improper claims.
ADF continues to defend Proposition 8 on behalf of the ProtectMarriage.com proponents and the voters of California. Its expertise and gracious service is accepted and used in many U.S. states for the protection of traditional marriage, religious land use, and freedom of speech.
California Family Council is honored to join with ADF, and I encourage pastors, church leaders, and attorneys to set aside Friday, January 28, for this exceptional seminar. This event will also provide opportunity to broaden and strengthen our coalition of allies in our strategic work to affect change in California. Click here for more information and for directions for easy registration.
For His Glory,
Ron Prentice
