Today's meeting was long, but much needed! Marty Morrison from Leo Vasquez's office came out to train us so we could become Volunteer Deputy Registrars! Then American Majority taught us on grassroots activism. This is Luke and I's third meeting we have been directors of, and it has been a blast learning!
I was telling Luke on the way to our meeting today that I believe the Tea Party movement is an answer to the church's cry for revival in America. Luke and I have been part of prayer meetings asking God to "Awaken America" and "Return America to Righteousness!" Isn't that what the Tea Party is doing?
It is my personal belief that our Founding Fathers based the U.S. Constitution on New Testament principles. And there is ample documentation proving so. Doesn't this mean that our Constitution is a covenant that our Founding Fathers made between God and America? Think about it.
Anyway, our next meeting is on August 21st at our house. We will be watching a DVD by the Tea Party Patriots about Recycling Government and then organizing block walks to register voters. And directly after the meeting we are block walking.
In case you missed today's meeting, the agenda has been uploaded to our google group. I leave you (temporarily) with the prayer we opened today's meeting with:
Heavenly Father, We ask that you give the United States President and his administration the wisdom, courage and peace to stand for what is right in Your sight. We also ask you to lead and guide us as we make decisions concerning returning the United States back to the Constitutional laws it was founded on. Help us provide strong moral resources to other citizens who want to live by the principles in which our country was built. Please keep your hand of protection upon us all. In Jesus Christ’s name we ask, Amen.
-Bethany
