Dear friends of More Light Presbyterians,

National Coming Out Day is coming up, and MLP is getting ready to 
celebrate!  We'd like to invite you to participate in our third annual 
Coming Out for More Light weekend by hosting a Coming Out for More Light 
house party on Saturday October 14 or Sunday October 15.  It's an 
opportunity to have fun, invite your friends to learn about More Light 
Presbyterians, keep building this grass-roots movement, raise funds to 
support MLP, and join a national house party conference call to get the 
latest update on our work to bring full equality to the PCUSA.

More Light Presbyterians--that's you, your nearest More Light 
congregation, and all members and friends across the country--are 
continuing to work for full equality for LGBT people in the Presbyterian 
Church.  Through our field organizer's trips, special events like More 
Light Sunday, an active presence on the web, producing new educational 
resources, our General Assembly team and local presbytery organizing, 
and much more, we are working hard for justice.  And it takes commitment 
and support from all of us to help that work happen.

On October 14 and 15, More Light Presbyterians supporters throughout the 
country will hold house parties, ask their guests to join MLP in 
financial support, and join together on a national conference call 
featuring an interactive conversation with More Light leaders and MLP 
field organizer Michael Adee.  The parties and the calls will strengthen 
our solidarity as a movement, help grow MLP's membership, and increase 
the financial strength of MLP to allow us to keep up the national push 
for full equality.  House parties are easy, fun, and a great way to 
support the More Light movement. Plus, MLP can help you with your house 
party in several ways:

    * We'll list your party on our web site and invite MLP supporters to 
contact you electronically. (You also have the option to hold an 
unlisted "private" party.)
    * Our detailed More Light house party guide is available to help you 
host a great party.
    * We'll be setting up "house party 101" training conference calls in 
September, to answer all your questions and give you the details on how 
to organize a house party, from start to finish.
    * We provide the content: house parties have the opportunity to show 
one of the interviews from our MLP special release DVD, which includes 
interviews with More Light field organizer Michael Adee and with MLP 
board member Heather Reichgott.  All house parties also get to 
participate in the national conference call, which will be an 
interactive event where you get to participate and ask questions.

Can you host a party on Saturday October 14 or Sunday October 15?  Sign 
up now at:

House parties should start at 7:00 PM eastern time (4 PM pacific) on 
Saturday, and 5:00 PM eastern time (2 PM pacific) on Sunday, so that you 
and your guests can join the national More Light conference call that 
starts one hour later.

Inviting friends, family, and co-workers who care about 
lesbian/gay/bisexual/transgender equality is a great way to get them 
involved, to show that this is an issue that's important to you, and to 
take action to support equality and fairness in America.

Together, we can change the Presbyterian Church for the better... and we 
will!

Thank you for all of your support.

Sincerely,
Kim Smith King and Bear Ride
Co-moderators, More Light Presbyterians
