In the brief, CCCC asked the senate committee to affirm Advancing Religion as a charitable purpose with significant public benefit to Canadian society. 

Rev. John Pellowe, CEO of CCCC, has been invited to speak to the senate commiittee at 11:00 AM Monday, March 18 with a special emphasis on how even non-religious people benefit from religious charities. The presentation will be followed by a time for Q&A with the senators.

CCCC asks for your prayers as we make the case for why religious organizations should have charitable status.
