For Those Looking for a Way to Make a Difference

When I taught in the public schools, I encouraged students to take advantage of their civil liberties before they graduate by getting involved with some particular moral issue in some public way—a letter writing campaign, demonstrating with signage at a public site, canvassing, stuffing envelopes, working a booth at the county fair, providing rides for voters, and so on as would be appropriate for a given issue. Public involvement is in addition to private involvement—praying, making donations, stating your views to a friend.

Folks have asked what they might be able to do in order to help with passage of the marriage amendment to be voted upon in Minnesota this coming November. Here’s one way: Organizers are seeking volunteers who can offer a couple hours per week, and it is possible to work from home.

Cautious individuals will be interested to know that it is no violation of IRS tax codes for this website (or any church) to offer you a link to the Minnesota for Marriage website where you can volunteer to serve. For one thing, this is no endorsement of any candidate or party. We urge individuals to take their biblical convictions to the voting booth and to the public square.
