Dear Friends of Soulforce,
In less than three weeks we will be standing in unity to peacefully confront the untruths perpetuated by James Dobson and Focus on the Family.
Perhaps you have friends that can’t attend the action, but would like to support you and Soulforce in some way. Here’s how they can help:
A note-card is attached to this email (and copied below for those who can’t open attachments) . Please print out 5-10 of the attached note cards and get friends who can’t attend to write a brief message, in the spirit of nonviolence. You can bring these with you to the rally and we will collect them there. Feel free to forward this attachment to others. All cards/messages should be emailed directly to me at jeff@soulforce.org. A note-card will be available during the Family Picnic and Rally on May 1, in which those in attendance can write a brief message to Dobson.
On Monday, May 2, 2005, we will be conducting a "Family Intervention" inside Focus on the Family. We plan to hand deliver messages from people around the country who have been hurt, or have a loved-one that has been hurt, by the false words spoken by James Dobson, and others like him.
Thank you for helping us with this project. See you soon!
Sincerely,
Jeff Lutes,
Co-Chair, Colorado Springs Direct Action
