Dear ,
****{Introduce yourself and say something about your family, community, or your faith}****
I am writing to encourage the Coalition to uphold the promises made regarding religious freedom. Your dedication to protecting freedom of religion, freedom of speech, and freedom from discrimination is essential in maintaining the diverse fabric of our society. The assurance that religious organisations, including faith-based schools, can employ staff in line with their faith-based values is a vital aspect of honouring these commitments.
As you embark on this new term in Parliament, I hope the Opposition will vigorously uphold these promises and ensure the Government is held accountable in safeguarding religious freedoms. These protections are not just about preserving rights but also about fostering an environment where all beliefs are respected and valued.
I want you to know you are in my prayers as you serve our community. Your leadership in this regard is vital, and I trust you will continue to champion these essential freedoms for everyone in our nation. Your role is crucial in ensuring that these freedoms remain protected and unhindered.
****{enter your name and address.}****
