One of New Yorker’s Family Research Foundation’s (NYFRF) goals is to keep local Christian leaders informed as to what is happening in the State Legislature, so that pastors can continue to focus freely on the ministry that the Lord has called them to, with as little government infringement as possible.

One of the ways that NYFRF accomplishes this goal for pastors and church ministries is through Pastors’ Briefings. NYFRF will hold briefings across the state in early 2011.

Pastor, I urge you to arrange your schedule to attend the one nearest you.  We have endeavored to make them as convenient as possible. Your only cost is a couple hours of your time and the meal you order at the restaurant.

Please do two things to make the Briefing successful for you and your ministry.  Call the NYFRF office at (585) 225-2220 or e-mail This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it and tell Rachel which Briefing you will attend. Second, invite other pastors to join you. When they accept your invitation, notify Rachel that they will be present.

Our ministry representatives will discuss legal action against the State of New York regarding two issues of church taxation and we'll preview what can be expected in the 2011-2012 legislative session. I hope to see you there!
