http://lloydletta.blogspot.com/2005/03/urban-vultures-and-colin-powell-center.html Check this out - Urban Ventures and the Colin Powell Center seem to be praying for passage of the Bachmann amendment..... http://www.midwestchaplains.org/images/mncall.htm Here's some of the text: Whereas: At this critical point for both our state and nation with many important issues being debated in the public square and with many difficult decisions facing our legislators that will impact the future of our great state; and Whereas: The definitition of marriage is being challenged, a change that will impact the moral fabric of our state for future generations, and state legislators are being called on to make decisions on this issue; and Whereas In this hour of history's calling, Minnesotans look to God for encouragement and strength to make moral decisions especially concerning the Defense of Marriage; and Now Therefore: We, the Minnesota Christian Network, do hereby proclaim Wednesday, March 16, 2005, to be: A Day of Repentence, Prayer and Fasting for marriage in the State of MN, and we humbly encourage our citizens to turn to God. May we open our hearts and our minds to seek wisdom and courage for the decisions before our leaders and ask God to grant them divine help to make decisions that honor him. Endorsing Ministries include: Urban Ventures and the Colin Powell Center..... Go to the Midwest Chaplains website and they link to an article by the "Pro-Family News" - from the Anti-gay Minnesota Family Council - about their efforts. Now why is it that Rep. Neva Walker has been working so hard to get the Urban Ventures bonding funding? Peter McLaughlin has been a major pusher of funding for this organization. I'd like to hear if he still thinks this group should get public funding. Eva Young Near North Minneapolis Blogs: http://lloydletta.blogspot.com http://www.outletradio.com REMINDERS: 1. Be civil!
