WASHINGTON, D.C. –  Faith & Liberty is working in partnership with 70 other organizations to host the first inaugural International Religious Freedom Summit (IRF) 2021 to increase public awareness and political strength for religious freedom around the world.

With more than 30 countries participating, the IRF Summit will be a three-day in person event at the Omni Shoreham Hotel in Washington D.C., July 13 – July 15, with a virtual option for participation.

Peggy Nienaber, vice president of Faith & Liberty, was asked by former Ambassador Sam Brownback to be a part of the steering committee. Her role is to coordinate arrangements for the 85 speakers from around the world.

Thousands of concerned citizens, faith groups and leaders will come together to stand, advocate and, strategize for “international religious freedom for everyone, everywhere, all the time.” Intercessory prayer groups will be participating on-site during the event.

The Summit is open to the public. Registration information is available at irfsummit.com.

Neinaber said, “The first inaugural International Religious Freedom Summit is a special opportunity for Christians to come to the aid of their oppressed brothers and sisters around the world and to demonstrate the love of Christ to those who adhere to other faiths. Every follower of Christ has an opportunity to make a difference in the fight for international religious freedom.”
