periods: *It can't be done. *It
probably can be done, but it's
not worth doing *I knew it was
a good idea all along! JOIN THE COALITION! http://groups.google.com/group/coalition-the Page 05 JOIN THE COALITION! God places the heaviest

the first INTER-FAITH COMMUNITY Page 07 There was a guy telling his friend that he
and his wife had a serious argument the
night before. "But it ended," he said,
"when she came crawling to me on her
hands and knees." "What did she say?"
asked the friend. The husband replied,
"She said, 'Come out from under that
bed, you coward!'" Page 08 JOIN THE COALITION! You may have a fresh start any
moment you choose, for this
thing we call failure is not the
falling down, but the staying
down. Page 09 Our society is so caught up in
winning; we forget that most
of the great men and women
in history have, at one time or
another, failed at something.
Often repeatedly, and
discouragingly. But each
failure is nothing more than a
brick in the wall that forms the
foundation of our success. We
can't forget that. Page 10 JOIN THE COALITION! What is it about the job of the
vice-president that seems to
dissolve all common sense?
Most of us remember the Dan
Quayle experience, but the
self-proclaimed creator of the
Internet has enough of his
own to take us through to the
end of the year… "Mars is essentially in the same
orbit... Mars is somewhat the same
distance from the Sun, which is very
important. We have seen pictures
where there are canals, we believe, and
water. If there is water that means
there is oxygen. If oxygen, that means
we can breathe."

young and old— to come together on January 17, 2009 and witness the power of faith in action! Our belief: As people of faith… We embrace Dr. Martin Luther King's hope for peace and safety in our communities. We resist apathy to this epidemic of violence, because fear, closed doors, and
separation will not end it. We unite to bring God's vision of a peaceable kingdom, without the violent loss of
400 lives in Philadelphia alone last year. Join with other Philadelphia area faith communities as we gather in houses of
worship for prayer, education and discussion, raise our hearts and voices in worship and song, hear from inspirational preachers and teachers and take action. We'll walk together to a rally in front of a local gun store notorious for selling guns
used to threaten, wound and kill. Together we'll call for retailers of firearms to adopt a sensible Code of Conduct to
dramatically reduce the illegal trafficking of handguns. This is the same code that
has been adopted by Wal-Mart, America's top gun seller. Won't you join us? A joint effort of the Church of the Brethren, Mennonite Church USA, Philadelphia Yearly Meeting of the Religious Society of
