What an incredible year.
Thanks to God and supporters like you we’ve had our biggest year ever.
We’ve seen more people taking action and participating in more campaigns and on a broader range of issues than ever before.
Together we have:
-
Stood in solidarity with the persecuted church
-
Called for a more generous humanitarian migrant intake
-
Campaigned to preserve the natural, timeless and sustainable definition of marriage
-
Stood up to large, multinational corporate giants like Playboy
-
Called for a national curriculum that recognises Christianity’s contribution to our society
-
Made religious freedom a key election issue in the Victorian election campaign
-
Successfully campaigned to overturn a ban on school Bible study groups and prayer groups in Victorian schools
-
Obtained key election commitments from the new Tasmanian government that will enhance religious freedom
-
and much, much more…
So as we march towards Christmas and remember Jesus’ birth, let’s remember to give thanks for all the wonderful
blessings we’ve received this past year.
Thank you very much for your support over this last year.
We hope you and your family have a blessed Christmas.
