SFOI is a short-term mission agency that takes teams of people across the U.S. and the world to share faith with fans at major sporting events, such as the Super Bowl. First Liberty has worked with SFOI over the past few years to provide its members with important information on their constitutional rights to free speech and free exercise of religion.
First Liberty successfully guided the group through several major events, including the 2016 Super Bowl in Santa Clara, California, the 2015 Super Bowl in Phoenix, 2014 Super Bowl in New Jersey, the 2013 Super Bowl in New Orleans, the 2012 Super Bowl in Indianapolis, and the 2011 Super Bowl in Dallas.
In preparation for these events, First Liberty attorneys and volunteer attorneys work closely with host city officials and local law enforcement to confirm that religious free speech and the free distribution of religious literature will not be impeded. After guidelines are finalized, First Liberty attorneys stand by during the events to consult with police and security personnel on religious freedom issues and to ensure the laws are fairly enforced.
With First Liberty’s assistance, volunteers with SFOI have successfully shared their faith with thousands of sports fans without fear of retribution or disturbance from local law enforcement.
