A place to share ideas on how to convince our elected officials that THEY work for US. That THEY can be REPLACED by others, who acknowledge and understand, that conservative is NOT a dirty word

Great News
Are you one of the thousands of Americans who have steadily been losing hope for our great Country? Do you listen to the evening news and think, “It’s just too much, there’s no way we can pull out of this sea of self destruction”?
Well, if so, STOP IT!! There is HOPE! Under our very noses, unreported by the secular media, a significant group of your elected officials are working tirelessly to build up America’s number one resource for strength, growth, and the freedom this Country was built on.
In a room, in the Congress building, a phenomenal thing is happening. Senators and Congressmen and women are praying. Yes, actually getting on their knees and asking God for guidance before making those monumental decisions that affect yours, and your children’s, lives.
Surprised? Amazed? I know I was when I first heard this. Beau and I have been listening to a set of DVD’S called American Heritage. We purchased this set from a website called www.wallbuilders.com . They have been produced by a man called David Barton. Barton is a Christian historian who has taken the time to chronicle the beginnings of our Country, and the tremendous impact that belief in God, Jesus Christ, and the Church had, on the birth of this nation. Barton has taken years, and goodness only knows how much of his own finances, to amass an unheard of collection of the original documents, personal correspondence, and books, written by our original leaders. By being in possession of these ORIGINAL documents, he cannot be refuted when he tells the world that the founding fathers were, in fact, almost completely made up of God fearing, Christian men, who believed that the Bible was the backbone of our strength as a Nation. And these men went on to craft the Constitution based on the teachings of this same BIBLE!
It was thru David Barton that I first learned about www.findroom219.com .
Room 219 is the room in the Congress building that is being used by these brave men and women to actually seek God’s guidance before performing their duties as YOUR representative in our government.
Okay, now you know. So what are you going to do? Just be glad that someone is finally on the right track to healing our ailing nation? If so, shame on you!
This is YOUR country. Your family members have served in our military, have given unselfishly, sometimes their very lives, to defend your right to worship freely and be governed by HONEST men and women.
There is bound to be something that each of us can do. This letter to each of you is MY beginning. I challenge each of you to find something to do to give aid to these brave men and women in Congress. If nothing else, take a moment to visit these websites. Pick just one name of one elected leader and write to them, telling them how you feel about what they are doing to improve your country’s government.
Ask your church leaders what they are doing to help our government. Tell a neighbor about prayer in Congress. DO SOMETHING to get out the message that hope is not lost, that this country is moving in the right direction! Obviously the news media is not going to shout this from the rooftops, but we as citizens can do our part to spread the GOOD NEWS that God is alive and active in our government.
