Dear ,
****{Introduce yourself and say something about your family, community, or your faith}****
I am writing to express my anticipation in seeing the Opposition remain steadfast in its commitment to protecting religious freedom, following the recent election. Your promises to uphold freedom of religion, speech, and protection from discrimination based on religion resonate with many in our community. The assurance that religious organisations, including faith-based schools, will have the right to employ staff aligned with their beliefs is a significant aspect of this commitment. It is critical that the Government is held accountable in ensuring these freedoms are safeguarded.
As you take on this important role during your new term, I would like to assure you of my support through prayer. The responsibilities you face are undoubtedly complex, and I hope that wisdom and discernment guide your decisions in representing our community's values and concerns. Thank you for your ongoing dedication to this important cause, and I look forward to seeing positive steps towards the protection of religious freedoms.
