Tickets are now available for this year’s Religious Liberty Council Luncheon, to be held June 27 in Atlanta, Ga., in conjunction with the Cooperative Baptist Fellowship General Assembly. Melissa Rogers, special assistant to the president and the executive director of the White House Office of Faith-based and Neighborhood Partnerships, is this year’s keynote speaker.

Tickets are $40 for individuals and $400 for a table of 10. Visit us online at BJConline.org/luncheon to purchase your tickets today, or call our office at 202-544-4226.

The luncheon is open to the public, but you must have a ticket to attend. Last year’s luncheon sold out in advance — be sure to reserve your place to hear from Rogers and connect with other supporters of religious liberty and the Baptist Joint Committee.

Rogers, who was appointed to her current position in 2013, was the BJC’s associate general counsel from 1994-1999 and general counsel from 1999-2000. She also served as director of the Center for Religion and Public Affairs at Wake Forest University Divinity School and a nonresident senior fellow at The Brookings Institution.

For questions about the annual luncheon, contact Development Director Taryn Deaton at [email protected] or 202-544-4226.

The Cooperative Baptist Fellowship General Assembly, which will be taking place surrounding the time of the luncheon, is free and open to the public. For more information on the assembly and to register for it, visit TheFellowship.info/assembly.
