October 30, 2010- Monthly Meeting

Today we met at Spring Creek BBQ for our bi-monthly meeting. Henry Newinn spoke, sharing with us his experiences living in communism, the damaging effects of Socialism, and how he viewed living in America vs. Vietnam. He made several really great points, reminding us that people immigrate desperately wanting to live in America, but no one wants to live in a Communist country. So why dear Americans, do we have crazies in our country trying to turn us communist? And why in the world would you vote for someone who wants to take away our freedoms?

Ken Hoover, Field Coordinator for the John Birch Society, introduced us to a spectacular pamplet called The Freedom Index that reveals voting records and who is holding up our U.S. Constitution! He also shared with us what his group is doing concerning promoting conservative thought. Their website is: http://www.jbs.org/.

We have one more meeting at Spring Creek BBQ in Cypress Towne Center on November 13, 2010 at 4:00 pm and then we are taking a short month and a half break for the holidays! But don't think we are calling it quits! We are only recharging for 2011 & 2012!

Here is the prayer our group prayed at today's meeting:



You prepare a feast for me in the presence of my enemies. You honor me by anointing my head with oil. My cup overflows with blessings. Psalm 23:5 NLT


Heavenly Father, thank you that you have our country in your hands. Thank you for blessing us and protecting us. We lift up our Cypress Texas Tea Party group to you and we ask you to give us wisdom, common sense, protection and favor. We ask your Holy Spirit to lead us in the direction that you have called us to go. We ask you to give the citizens of the United States of America the boldness to vote righteously and for those candidates who stand for it. In Jesus Christ’s name we ask, Amen.

See you soon!

October 23, 2010 Early Voting Rally at Cypress Top Park

Wowsers! People came out today by the droves to vote! And they looked determined! Determined like us to turn this country around. Cypress Texas Tea Party set out tents and passed out information, free hot dogs and free water. Elizabeth, a student from Notre Dame, visited with us and interviewed many of our members. I don't think she was expecting some of the responses, but I hope she was pleased with the results. Let's get ready to rumble 2012! We already know we have this election in the bag:)

This past Sunday, in our neighborhood, there was a Triathlon with an after-party. We set up a booth with the Cypress Texas Tea Party banner and passed out free chili and information. Many people approached asking about the Tea Party. The day was beautiful and we had a great time! BTW-Luke's Chili won 1st place:)

Don't forget our Early Voting Rally on October 23, 2010 at Cypress Top Park!

October 1, 2010- Monthly Meeting!

Ahhhh! Our temperature is cooling and the sweet smell of the holidays is beginning it's annual descent. This Saturday we met at Spring Creek BBQ to discuss plans for our Early Voting Rally (October 23-Cypress Top Park) and watchdogging the polls.We have decided we are tired of the Acorn business and it's time for truth and justice to reign in Cypress, Texas.

Larry Youngblood, CFISD board member, spoke to our group about the HUGE debt load CFISD is carrying. So listen up Cypress, before you vote on the new school board members this November 2, really investigate which direction the board is taking us.  The CFISD Board Candidate Forum is coming up! Good time to ask some questions! Here is the link:

Opening prayer from our October 1st meeting:

Heavenly Father, We love You and thank You for this day, our Country, and Your providence that is still waiting for us. Lead us to do our part and steward the liberty and freedoms our forefathers worked so hard to achieve. Help us uncover deception and falsehood wherever it lies.

Make us beacons of light, of truth, saying the things You want us to say and doing the things You want us to do.This is our country, and we commit the work of restoring honor, remembering our Godly heritage, and working towards greater liberty to You, and we ask that You establish our thoughts and keep us in the right place at the right time and give us the courage to do what is right every time.For the coming election on Nov. 2nd and the following Presidential election, please wake our country up out of apathy, and give us wisdom to choose righteously.

Help us to educate ourselves and steward our liberty and our right to vote prudently. Please give us ideas in this meeting that bring us joy to perform. In Jesus Christ’s name, Amen.
