We got a note from Dr. Anthony McFarland, chair of Kingdom of God International, who is requesting that all Christian clergy leaders in Altadena partner and participate in a "Rally to Stop the Violence" on Fri., May 15, at the corner of Altadena Dr. and Fair Oaks from 5-7 PM. The note says:
The Bible says in Mt. 11: 12 "And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force." As leaders we must stand up and be a voice in times like this. It could have been one of your members, children or grandchildren to fall victim to these senseless murders.
We are asking you to have 2 to 3 members from your church (men if possible) to participate in this rally on Friday. We will have banners and fliers requesting people to speak up and for this city to turn to God! The Sheriffs Department is extremely appreciative of this effort that will be taken on this Friday, May 15th 2009. Why get involved? Let’s remember what the Bible says in Ps. 82: 3 Defend the poor and fatherless: do justice to the afflicted and needy.
