Event Alert: Pastors Family Issues Summit

The Family Foundation and Pastors for Family Values are pleased to announce our first Pastors Family Issues Summit, to be held at the newly renovated state capitol on Tuesday, September 11, from 9:00 am to 4:00 pm.

The Pastors Issues Summit is an opportunity for pastors to interact with other church leaders from around Virginia and to gain a more complete understanding of the issues facing our families.  Held in the newly renovated state Capitol, attendees will hear from experts on the issues and leading political voices in Virginia, including Attorney General Bob McDonnell. 

Attendees will hear experts on topic such as the role of pastors in civic government, the issues facing the General Assembly in 2008, the legal rights of pastors to speak on family issues and more.

Pastors For Family Values (PFFV) is a newly formed grassroots arm of The Family Foundation through which pastors connect to both The Family Foundation and other like-minded pastors.  PFFV is denominationally, regionally and ethnically diverse, attempting to illustrate a unity in the body of Christ on pro-family issues. The PFFV is also sub-divided into regions so that local TFF chapters may interact with them as needed.

Nearly 100 pastors and church leaders attended PFFV's kick-off luncheon in May.

If you are a pastor and would like to attend, please contact Steve Waters at 804-343-0010.  If you are a church member and would like to have your pastor attend, please click here and print out the invitation, give it to your pastor and encourage them to attend or to send someone from the church staff.
