Are you planning a Super Bowl Activity?

 

You may have heard that "Super Bowl" parties are against the law. Fall Creek Baptist Church in Indianapolis, Indiana was ordered to cancel their party.  However,  there are a few guidelines to follow if you desire to host an event on that day in honor of the big game.

 

Church Relevance put an article that referenced that The Church Law Group had put together 3 rules for church "Super Bowl" parties.

 

The 3 Rules for 2010 Church "Super Bowl" Parties are:

 

  1.  The game must be shown on equipment that the church regularly uses over the course of ministry.

 

  1. The church can not charge admission for the party.
    •  The NFL has stated, however, that church may take up a donation to defray the cost of the event if they desire.

 

  1. To avoid any copyright infringements, churches may want to call their event a “Big Game Party” rather than a “Super Bowl Party.”

 

 

So in case your wondering, Fall Creek  is hosting a Super Bowl party err should I say a Big Game Bash!

 

I can't wait to watch the Super Bowl. I'll be the one in the back wearing Cowboy gear and cheering for God's Team!
