Religious Liberty

Our Public Affairs and Religious Liberty (PARL) department’s mission is to promote the principles of religious freedom among church membership and the general public. The director provides advice and support to members and churches that face Sabbath accommodation and other religious liberty issues.

Pastors, Local Elders, Church PARL Leaders, and those who are interested in Community, Conscience and Faith are invited to attend! This PARL Summit was planned with you in mind.
