If your employer has 15 or more employees, it should be subject to Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which prohibits religious discrimination, including the refusal to accommodate religious beliefs/practices. Many cases have held that an employer should make scheduling changings to accommodate attendance at church.
