[Peace-discuss] Wednesday Vigil

[Lisa Chason]

  I got the message below from a friend who doesn't often attend such
things. I checked the website link and it says 19 people have signed up.
So I think I'm going to go to this and tell others about it and call him
to offer help.

Hi,

I just signed up for a Vigil for Cindy Sheehan run by MoveOn.org
Political Action .




Wednesday, August 17, 2005 7:30PM

Cindy Sheehan, mother of Army Specialist Casey Sheehan who was killed in
Iraq, continues her vigil outside President Bush's ranch in Crawford,
Texas. She was recently joined by more moms who lost a child in Iraq and
other military families. Meanwhile President Bush continues his
five-week vacation and pledged Thursday to keep U.S. troops in
Iraq-meaning more moms will lose a child.

Cindy has asked supporters to start candlelight vigils in their
communities to support her and call for an end to the war. So, MoveOn is
teaming up with True Majority and Democracy for America to host Vigils
for Cindy Sheehan on Wednesday, August 17th, to show our solidarity with
Cindy.

Our vigils will be simple and dignified. Together, we'll acknowledge the
sacrifices made by Cindy Sheehan, her son, Casey and the more than 1,800
brave American men and women who have given their lives in Iraq-and
their moms and families.

Hosts are urgently needed to help organize the Vigils for Cindy Sheehan.
If you can host a vigil on your own, you will be making an enormous
contribution to this nationwide event. Thank you.
