Dear Friends:
Many thanks to our supporters from throughout the
world! We are gratified and deeply moved by the speed and efficiency
that all of you demonstrated as you called Washington, your legislators,
the press, your phone trees and email lists. It has been astonishing
to see the exposure and the support that the 16th Friendshipment
Caravan has received!
As you have probably heard by now, most of the aid
and caravan participants have crossed the border into Mexico and
are on their way to Tampico! They will deliver their solidarity,
their love and their cargo to Cuba within the next few days. They
could not have accomplished this immense task without the support
of our network in the US and abroad. Thank you!
|
But the struggle is not over! There are still a
handful of Pastors for Peace here in Texas with computers and other
items that we believe the Commerce Department will seize. We are
determined to deliver this humanitarian aid to Cuba. We are united
in our mission to break this blockade!
We need your continued support to make this happen!
So keep making those phone calls! Keep the momentum going! Our spirits
are high and our resolve is deep. Please keep us in your thoughts
and prayers.
Sincerely,
Rev. Lucius Walker, Jr.
