The mission of CPFL staff is to maintain strategic relationships with MPs, senators and other officials using a reasoned and compassionate biblical voice. We make submissions (such as research, position papers and briefings) for the consideration of those in power, addressing social issues from a Christian perspective. For example:
- Religious freedom
- Sanctity of life
- Partnering for change with oppressed and marginalized Canadians
- And promoting the wellbeing of families and communities across Canada.
