Religious Freedom

Religious Freedom Global Task Force

 

Overview

In determining a project in which the RFGTF might get involved, I kept several objectives in mind.  They include:

 

    1. The project should be one which will encourage, equip and enable Christian lawyers around the world to use their legal skills to serve Christ by bringing about the biggest possible improvement in religious freedom at the lowest possible cost.

 
 

    1. In carrying out this objective, I considered several other objectives.
      1. The project should be one which will encourage participation by lawyers in countries all around the world but for which lawyers in AA can establish the model for other regions.
      2. The project should be one which can be carried out by Christian lawyers  mostly on a voluntary basis;
      3. The project should be one which will “make a difference” to as large a group of people as possible;
      4. The project should be affordable, generally because it is low cost, but also possibly because funding is available for it;
      5. To the extent possible, the project should build on experiences Advocates’  lawyers and others have already accumulated; and
      6. If feasible, the project should incorporate an effort to bring about the desired result without litigation, always keeping in mind the Christian’s responsibility to do justice with mercy and compassion.
