SAINT RAPHAEL THE ARCHANGEL Raphael is the archangel which appears disguised in human form as the travelling companion of the younger Tobias, calling himself "Azarias the son of the great Ananias". The story of the adventurous journey during which the protective influence of the angel is shown "in the desert of upper Egypt" of the demon who had previously slain seven husbands of Sara, daughter of Raguel, (Tob. 5:11). After the return and the healing of the blindness of the elder Tobias, Azarias makes himself known as "the angel Raphael, one of the seven, who stand before the Lord" Of these seven `archangels", only three, Gabriel, Michael and Raphael, are mentioned in the canonical Scriptures. The others, according to the Book of Enoch are Uriel, Raguel, Sariel, and Jerahmeel, while from other apocryphal sources we get the variant names Izidkiel, Hanael, and Kepharel instead of the last three in the other list. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ --

Wilson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please print in your email newsletter. > >> >> >>FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE >> >>May 3, 2000 >> >>THE MOUSE THAT ROARED! >> >>On April 20, 2000, America's Conservative Coffee Company, LLC sent out a press release calling for a national boycott against Starbucks Coffee Company by gun owners across America. This was due to their official endorsement of "The Million Mom March Against Guns" to be held in Washington, D.C. on Mother's Day, May 14th. >> >>On May 3rd, we received a letter from the Starbucks Coffee Company director of public affairs, Mr. Alan Gulick stating their position. He mentioned that Starbucks has "never been an official corporate sponsor of the Million Mom March." However, Mr. Gulick could not, and did not fully explain their company position on this march or the Second Amendment. He mentioned their support for "violence prevention," but this was not defined. And he did not elaborate on their official position endorsing the march. >> >>On Tuesday May 2nd, Starbucks Coffee was shown and listed on the official website for the Million Mom March at www.millionmommarch.com under sponsors and endorsements. Today, May 3rd they are no longer listed on their website. >> >>We ask the Starbucks Coffee Company two questions. Was their removal from the website of Million Mom March due to our press release of April 20th, and does this mean that Starbucks Coffee Company no longer endorses the Million Mom March Against Guns? Neither question has been answered. Perhaps there is a third question we should ask Starbucks. Is Starbucks contradicting itself, and supporting our Second Amendment Rights as written? >> >>Is America's Coffee Company the "mouse that roared?" We are asking some tough questions. But then again, didn't David ask some tough questions before he met up with Goliath? We believe in our Second Amendment rights, and support those who do likewise, such as the "Second Amendment Sisters" who will be marching in Washington, D.C. May 14th. >> >>For information regarding our company and products, we can be reached at >>1-888-797-2824, or on the world wide web at WWW.AMERICASCOFFEECOMPANY.COM >> >>We have been written about in the Washington Times, New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Seattle P-I, Insight On The News, National Review, Human Events, The Hill, Sales, Marketing & Management Magazine, Washington Law & Politics, and seen and heard on FOX News Brit Hume, CNN, ABC News, CBN News, and talk radio across America.
