March for MarriageFrom the organizers of the March for Marriage:

 

Why  the  March  for  Marriage?  On  March  26th  the  Supreme  Court  will  hear  oral  arguments  in  the  Perry  case,  which   will  determine  if  Proposition  8  –  the  citizens  initiative  approved  by  the  people  of   California  in  2008  to  protect  marriage  –  is  constitutional  or  not.    More  importantly,   the  question  of  same-­?sex  “marriage”  and  the  right  of  Americans  to  protect  marriage   will  be  decided.  It  is  imperative  that  political  leaders,  the  media,  and  the  culture  see   that  we  care  about  protecting  marriage  enough  to  stand  up  and  march  for  it.

Who  is  the  March  for  Marriage?   The  March  is  being  organized  by  the  National  Organization  for  Marriage  (NOM)
alongside  a  broad  coalition  of  pro-­?family  organizations,  state  partners,  African-­? American,  Latino,  Catholic  and  Protestant  leaders.  Please  check  the  website  for  an   up-­?to-­?date  list  of  co-­?sponsoring  organizations  and  confirmed  speakers.

What  is  the  Schedule  of  Events  for  the  March  on  Tuesday,  March  26th?   8:30 am  –  Gather  at  National  Mall  location  between  10th  Street  and  12th  Street  NW  &  between  Madison  Drive  NW  and  Jefferson  Drive  SW   9:30am  –  March  to  Supreme  Court  and  then  return  to  the  National  Mall  location   11:00am-­1:00pm  –  Rally  begins  at  National  Mall  location

How  can  I  help  out?
  a)  share  this  handout  with  your  friends,  family,  and  fellow  church  members   b)  come  to  Washington,  DC  and  march  with  us  on  March  26!  c)  organize  a  group  to  travel  to  DC  to  march  and/or  volunteer  the  day  of  the  march   d)  last  but  not  least,  pray  for  the  march  and  for  the  protection  of  marriage.

How  can  I  learn  more  about  coming  to  the  march,  becoming  a  co-­?sponsor,  organizing  a  bus  or  volunteering  on  the  day  of  the  march?
