Task force to find site for Center for Religious Liberty

Momentum is building for the Center for Religious Liberty on Capitol Hill. We are confident that the time is right to move the Baptist Joint Committee into its own permanent, visible space. And to help us find that perfect site we have assembled a property identification /development task force to guide us through this important process.

Located within a few blocks of the U.S. Capitol, the Library of Congress and the Supreme Court, the state-of-the-art training center will serve as a nerve center for the BJC’s activities in Washington and provide highly visible education space. The Center will be used as a training center for youth, pastors, laity and others who actively advocate and advance religious liberty in their local communities.

Task members include: task force chair Reggie McDonough, BJC chair Steve Case, attorney Ken Ellison, Executive Director/Minister of the D.C. Baptist Convention Jeff Haggray, attorney David Massengill, architect Phil Renfrow, former BJC capital campaign consultant David Rogers and developer Jerry Williamson.
