So I know that I have strong opinions and strong emotions at times, but I need to share my thoughts for a minute. I know that we all are aware of the Proposition 8 that is on the ballot in California. We know that it is an important issue, but I don't know if we really grasp the severity of it. I recently returned from a visit to see my family in CA and I have found out a lot. Everyone in the stake my parents are in is asked to participate in walking the precincts. There will be a state-wide fireside in two weeks where they'll address the issues of the importance of protecting marriage and family.
There are many consequences that we'll definitely not like if the Proposition fails. If you want to read more, you can read some I've included here. It is a very serious issue for the future of our religious freedom/liberties as well as marriage and family. I have been shy at times, and have not known how to stand up for things or to what extent, but I have definitely realized that this time we cannot waste time. We need to stand up and protect our rights, religion and families. If the First Presidency of the Church will send a letter to the wards in CA as well as all the other states, telling us to do all we can in support of this Proposition, that should tell us to figure out how we can help.
PROTECT OUR FUTURE!
