HR1327: HR1327 Liberty Ministries Family Worship; occasion of its 25th anniversary; recognize
Last action February 10, 2026 · House Read and Adopted
A Georgia House resolution recognizes Liberty Ministries Family Worship, a church, on the occasion of its 25th anniversary and commends its community service.
In plain language
This is a ceremonial resolution from the Georgia House of Representatives, not a change to state law. It honors Liberty Ministries Family Worship, a church that held its first service on February 4, 2001, for reaching its 25th anniversary, celebrated on March 15, 2026 with homecoming events and worship services. The resolution praises the church's community work, including hosting summer camps, running a nonprofit food pantry called Liberty Helping Hands, Inc., and tutoring local children in math and reading. It directs the Clerk of the House of Representatives to prepare a copy of the resolution for the church, but it creates no new rules, funding, or legal obligations.
What the bill does
- Formally recognizes and commends Liberty Ministries Family Worship for its 25th anniversary as a church founded in 2001.
- States the House's praise for the church's community service, including summer camps, a food pantry, and tutoring programs.
- Directs the Clerk of the House of Representatives to prepare a copy of the resolution for distribution to the church.
- Creates no new laws, funding, or legal requirements, since it is a ceremonial statement rather than binding legislation.
Who it affects
The resolution directly names Liberty Ministries Family Worship, its pastor and first lady, and its congregation. It has no legal effect on the broader public, other churches, or any state agency beyond the House Clerk's office, which must prepare the commemorative copy.
Why it matters
The resolution has no practical legal effect on Georgians outside the church; it functions as a public, official acknowledgment. For the congregation, it means state recognition of a community milestone, but it does not change any law, funding, or regulation affecting anyone else.
Key provisions
- The whereas clauses describe the church's founding on February 4, 2001, its pastor and first lady, and its volunteer activities such as the food pantry Liberty Helping Hands, Inc.
- The resolved clause has the House of Representatives recognize the church's history and commend its 25 years of service.
- A further resolved clause directs the Clerk of the House of Representatives to make a copy available to the church.
