Faith In Our Future

On 21 March, the Australian Law Reform Commission released a set of recommendations that are an appalling attack on faith and freedom of belief in Australia. If the Government accepts these ALRC recommendations, it means Christian schools won’t have the freedom to preference people who share the same Christian values and beliefs when making employment decisions.

The good news is the Federal Government has not yet made its position clear but we need to send a clear message to the Prime Minister that Christian schools must be able to employ people who share our faith.

You can be part of a growing movement. We need to show the Attorney General that there is a definitive “line-in-the-sand” when it comes to Christian schools valuing the faith of Christian teachers as an absolute requirement going forward. We, as a community, can never resile from that.

But the people that the Prime Minister and Attorney General listen to are their own MPs and Senators. Especially those in marginal seats in the outer suburbs.

Faith In Our Future is a town hall event that will bring together supporters of Christian

schools and their representatives in parliament.

These events are an opportunity to share about the impact of Christian faith in our schools, to share our concerns with our Federal political representatives and ask for their support.

If you want the Government to continue to value the faith of Christian teachers and staff, now is the time to act!
