*Building a church for all God's people*
Dear friends of More Light Presbyterians,
General Assembly is only 23 days away, and we're pulling out all the
stops for our GA presence in Birmingham, to make sure that your voices
are heard by the Assembly commissioners and the entire denomination.
We've got multiple events scheduled for every day of the week, all of
them designed to reach out to the Presbyterian Church with a message of
fairness and equality. To cover our costs for all of our General
Assembly advocacy, education, and training activities, we need to raise
$10,000. Can you help by making a special pre-GA contribution of $25,
$50, or more?
To support our work for justice Right Now, click here

As our way of saying thanks, we'll send you a set of four of our popular
"Right Now / Write Now" General Assembly 2006 postcards, which we've
designed specifically for advocacy at this year's GA and will never be
printed again. The cards let you write your own message to this year's
voting GA commissioners, then mail the card to MLP where we'll deliver
it on your behalf at General Assembly in Birmingham. You can send in
one card yourself, share two with friends, and keep one as our thank-you
for your help making justice a reality.

More Light Presbyterians unambiguously endorses the passage of the
Heartland "delete-B" overture
<http://www.mlp.org/article.php?story=20050419234203172> to bring
justice today, and opposes the recommendations of the Theological Task
Force report, which would delay and deny justice for lesbian, gay,
bisexual and transgender people yet again.
If you appreciate MLP's willingness to say "Justice /Right Now!/
<http://www.mlp.org/rightnow>" on paper and postcard and petition, in
direct mailings to every commissioner
<http://www.mlp.org/article.php?story=20060518232056871> and on the
floor of the General Assembly exhibition hall, then we invite you to let
us know with your support. We're looking forward, moving forward, and
the More Light movement is constantly gaining strength. Help us to
bring your voices to General Assembly in Birmingham this year - support
MLP with a pre-GA contribution
<https://secure.groundspring.org/dn/index.php?aid=7550>, and you'll be
helping to build a church for all God's people... Right Now!
Thanks for all that you do,
Bear Ride and Kim Smith King, co-moderators, and the entire board and
staff of More Light Presbyterians
P.S: We're up to an astonishing 46 church participants in More Light
Sunday <http://www.mlp.org/morelightsunday> this year... a new record in
participation. Your financial support
<https://secure.groundspring.org/dn/index.php?aid=7550> allows us to
design, print, and offer resources to this growing number of churches,
making our movement even stronger.
