Religious freedom is a blessing we often take for granted, yet it requires ongoing prayer, awareness, and support to be preserved. On Sabbath, January 10, 2026, our church will join churches across the Division to observe Religious Liberty Sabbath.

This special Sabbath focuses on promoting and protecting the freedom to worship according to conscience. Church members are invited to contribute to the North American Division-wide Religious Liberty Offering, to be collected on January 10. These funds support advocacy, education, and outreach efforts that defend religious freedom locally and globally.

As part of this campaign, members may also be asked to help identify local and state civic leaders who would benefit from receiving Liberty magazine, a publication that promotes religious freedom and mutual respect. This information will be submitted to the Division by March 19, 2026.

The Religious Liberty Campaign will continue through January to March 2026, allowing members additional opportunities to give and support this important work. If you are unable to give on January 10, donations may be returned by mail using the form in the campaign brochure, placed in a plain envelope marked “Religious Liberty” with the Sabbath offering, or submitted online at www.adventistgiving.org/events/parl2026 by the end of March.

Thank you for standing in support of religious liberty. Through your prayers, participation, and generosity, you help protect the freedom to worship and share faith with others.
