Help Needed for Prop 8, Marriage Campaign‏

Hello Fellow Brothers and Sisters in Christ.  I thought this might be of interest to some of you, if so, maybe we can help the Marriage Campaign at St.Luke’s.  See the information below.  Have a blessed day!

Last Chance to Restore Marriage Definition

Your Participation is Critical. Who doesn’t have time to help with the effort to pass Prop 8 and restore the definition of marriage in California? This is our last chance to reverse the decision of the California Supreme Court by putting the same language that was passed by 61% of California voters in 2000 into the state constitution: “Only marriage between a man and a woman is valid or recognized in California.”

What are we going to say to our children and grandchildren if Prop 8 loses by just a couple of votes? This is a time to make sacrifices and reorder priorities for the next few weeks. We will never have a chance like this again. There are very specific things that need to be done to win and we need your help.

1. Volunteer today! If you have not signed up personally, go to CatholicsforProtectMarriage.com. We will contact you within 72 hours and ask you to help with phoning or neighborhood walks. To be effective, your activities must be coordinated with the campaign.
2. Whether you have already signed up or are just doing it today, it is everyone’s job to recruit more volunteers. In order to cover the state, we need about 30-40 volunteers from the average parish. Ask 5 friends to volunteer today.
3. Consider becoming a leader in your area. Join with other leaders on recruitment drives in parishes and as Catholic events.
4. Ask members of your Catholic organization to volunteer. Yard signs are coming. When you volunteer online, please indicate if you would like to have a yard sign. If you would like to help distribute yard signs, make sure to indicate the quantity in the comment field when you sign up.

For the common good,
