An Invitation to Provide Invocations Before Meeting of the Forsyth County Board of Commissioners

The religious leaders or chosen leaders of any assembly that periodically and regularly meets in Forsyth County for the purpose of worshiping or discussing their religious perspectives are invited to offer an invocation before a meeting of the Forsyth County Board of Commissioners.

Those interested may submit their information at http://www.forsyth.cc/commissioners/invocations.aspx or by contacting the Clerk to the Board by email at sloopam@forsyth.cc or U.S. Mail and provide your name, phone number and email address.

The Board generally meets twice a month at 2:00 p.m. on Thursdays. The full 2020 meeting schedule can be found at https://forsyth.cc/Commissioners/meeting_schedule.aspx

This opportunity is voluntary, and speakers are free to offer an invocation according to the principles of their own conscience. The Board requests that the prayer opportunity not be exploited as an effort to convert others to the particular faith of the invocational speaker, threaten damnation, nor to disparage any faith or belief different than that of the invocational speaker.
