International Center for Law and Religion Studies

Newsletter of 25 January 2011

At the beginning of 2011, we at the International Center for Law and Religion Studies at Brigham Young University mark the opening of the second decade of the Center's formal existence. This is a time of both reflection and recommitment, of both gratitude and hope. As we ponder what we have attempted to accomplish during the past decade in service to the people and the causes we hold dear, we remember and cherish associations with our friends in many lands who are likewise engaged in promoting what is to us a most fundamental human freedom: the freedom to think and to express those thoughts, the freedom to believe and to manifest beliefs, alone or in peaceful association with others, according to the dictates of individual conscience. We know that much remains for us to do. In many ways the challenges have never been greater, and we are deeply grateful for all who join in the endeavor. We hope, as always, that you will come along, as we seek diligently to move forward.

Sincerely yours,

The International Center for Law and Religion Studies
