With the theme for this year's symposium being "International Protection of Religious Freedom: National Implementation," the opening session featured former Utah Gov. Mike Leavitt, who now serves as the U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services.
Leavitt, a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, told the group that he has a long-standing appreciation for the ability of government to work hand-in-hand with faith-based organizations.
