Free to Be Faithful Fall Newsletter


 
Free to be Faithful fall newsletter discusses recent Lutheran Center for Religious Liberty event in Washington, D.C.

Fall newsletter discusses religious liberty,
tax-exempt status, Boy Scouts of America

Members of The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod who expressed interest in defending the issues of marriage, life and religious liberty in the public square were recently invited to join in a conversation about those topics Sept. 8–10 in Washington, D.C.

Read the fall issue of the Free to be Faithful newsletter to learn more about their candid conversation — and the experts who took part in it — about confessing the faith in the public square in a uniquely Lutheran way.

You will also find information on legislation that would protect churches from losing tax-exempt status based on their belief in one-man/one-woman marriage, as well as information on the recent Boy Scouts of America decision to allow openly gay adult Scout leaders.

Finally, read about four LCMS college students who will serve as Young Adult Ambassadors on behalf of Free to be Faithful, the Synod’s education and awareness initiative regarding marriage, life and religious liberty.

“They are articulate and eager to confess the faith,” LCMS President Rev. Dr. Matthew C. Harrison explains. “And there are thousands more just like them in our church body.”

If you would like to stay informed on upcoming news and issues related to marriage, life, religious freedom or the establishment of the Lutheran Center for Religious Liberty, please send your name, address and phone number to freetobefaithful@lcms.org.
