Opportunity to suffer for the Kingdom, and have a little fun along the way.

Greetings!

Below is a link to a story about an upcoming meeting of the Presbyterian Church USA, where they will be voting on endorsement for a document condemning Israel for a wide variety of crimes and misdemeanors.

Please read the story (it's short) at the link and then forward this message to everyone you know who is Pro-Israel so that they can pray into the situation and if they live in and around Minneapolis (where the meeting will take place) they can go there and protest. I've been to a few street protests in my time, and I assure you they are a LOT of fun.

In this case, there's the added bonus of it being in the service of the Kingdom of God and of His Christ. Shaming Christians who are openly supporting terrorism against innocent Israeli civilians, correcting them in love, is a righteous and worthwhile thing to do, even if you are not 100% in favor of everything Israel does all the time, which of course you shouldn't be.

Here is the link;

Also, if you can't come to protest the meeting, you can call the Presbyterian Church USA at 1 (800) 872-3283 to tell them what you think about the idea. Please call them AFTER you have read the article so that you will know what you're talking about when you call.

If you want to write them a letter with lots of Bible verses, etc. their mailing address is;

PCUSA Office of the General Assembly
100 Witherspoon Street
Louisville, Kentucky 40202-1396

(888) 728-7228
(502) 569-5000
Fax: (502) 569-8005

Remember when you call and/or write to be LOVING in your correction, do not be nasty, snarky, etc. Be polite but firm, and avoid getting emotional, as hard as that might be. Also, I recommend you keep letters short and to the point, otherwise they won't be read.

God bless you all.

Aaron, just curious if you're the same Aaron I used to live with @ SCSU. If so, I'd love to catch up - luepked@gmail.com
Take care,
