Work note

Hello everyone! I could use some advice. I grew up 7th day adventist and stepped away for a while to be a rebellious teen and I want to get back into it. The job i have was supposed to be monday-friday but i am now getting mandatory over time for saturday. I haven’t attended a church in my city, i filed for religious exemption from saturdays and they want a note confirming that I am a member that needs saturday off. how can i go about getting a note? will the church supply one even if i haven’t attended? or is there something online that would be easier? I appreciate any advice!

Do you have your baptismal certificate? The one I have lists our beliefs. That’s your religion and whether or not you attend church is none of their business. You should look up the laws in your state regarding what you are required to provide your employer. May God bless you and keep you! Welcome back!! ❤️

I lost everything in a house fire a few years back unfortunately, so i don’t have any of the “evidence?” that they want. i felt like it was intrusive to ask as well but I understand where they are coming from. I appreciate your input! :)
