Will You Please Consider Helping?

Dear John xxxxxx,
The battle for TRUTH is not easy.
Because you hear this comment a lot:
“There’s nothing we can do. Give up!”
Yes, college campuses are a mess.
And it’s not easy to promote
traditional moral values.
But give up?
Never!
Instead of giving up, we should expand the good fight.
That’s why I’m writing to you today -- to see if you would consider joining our elite team of monthly
supporters: The Guardians of Truth.
As you know -- the truth is under
attack on all sides, even at Catholic colleges.
The battle for Truth can be lonely. And tough.
Indeed, the Cross of fidelity can be heavy.
I'm sure you've experienced that before.
But won’t Our Lord grant us the courage to follow in
His sublime footsteps?
Absolutely. “The
Cross is the ladder to Heaven,” said St. John Vianney.
Yet sometimes TFP Student Action volunteers are the only voice of truth on campus -- the only ones willing to stand
up against the prevailing tide for God's holy law and say:
“No. You can't be a good Catholic and
at the same time be pro-abortion!”
TFP Student Action is so busy now.
Because college students across the country are begging for help.
They feel outnumbered and overwhelmed.
For example, Nicolette from
Ohio writes:
“I do hope you make the trip to my college.
“I like reading your pamphlets online because they are sound arguments with facts and good
reasons... especially on abortion and traditional marriage.”
To reach all the students looking for help, TFP Student Action is set to redouble its efforts and
expand its outreach programs.
The goal is build a big network of like-minded college students who will stand up for the TRUTH.
Like no other time in history, the key to success is to
develop and train a top-notch team of leaders -- young, vocal and brave defenders of moral values.
What does that entail?
-- Running a TFP college-level study program
where students can learn how to defend the Faith and master the topics that are vital for the survival of the family and Christian Civilization.
-- Forming a rapid
response team of leaders that can travel anywhere in the country and coordinate effective grass-roots campaigns or peaceful protests.
-- Expanding the Call to
Chivalry Camps for boys which provide dads and sons the opportunity to embrace the virtues of honor, courage, manly piety, purity and follow
the example of Crusader saints.
-- Giving volunteers the know-how to launch successful campaigns for moral values on campus: Writing, printing, public
relations, debating techniques, and skills to influence public opinion.
Would you please consider helping this great undertaking as a Guardian of Truth?
The Guardians of Truth are special
friends who send a gift each month.
With a small monthly gift you’ll be right there with me...
And I desperately need friends like
you. The truth is –
we don’t have a huge endowment, or money from a big foundation, or government cash in the bank.
We go day by day, trusting God for gas to drive from campus to campus and
money for the next meal.
When we’re on the road for moral values, we rely totally on God’s Providence (our volunteers are not paid).
Here’s what you receive
as a Guardian of Truth supporter:
One: You participate in the prayers and merits of the TFP volunteers who are on the front lines for God’s
marriage and the unborn, defending the right to life at rallies and vigils.
Two: You have the comfort of knowing that your monthly gift allows us to go from
campus to campus, city to city, state to state.
Three: You have the peace of spirit to know that, by extension, your support gives courage to many students who
feel all alone and overwhelmed by the sexual revolution.
Four: Your sacrifice will gladden the angels who watch over this land, as they see your
generosity in action for the greater glory of God.
Five: You and your intentions are remembered in the daily prayers of TFP Student Action volunteers.
You’ll be
spiritually at our side as we campaign for the unborn and God’s marriage across
America. Please join here.
https://www.tfpstudentaction.org/get-involved/guardians-of-truth We even reach out to
students on the most liberal college campuses like Brown University and the UC -- Berkeley.
You won’t believe what happened at Berkeley.
The left was absolutely stunned:
“Are you sure you know where you are?”
one asked, incredulous.
“Yes, of course,” replied my TFP colleague.
But he insisted:
“No. You don't understand... Do you really, really know where you are? This is Berkeley!”
So there we were on the middle of campus with
our tall TFP banner fluttering majestically in the wind. Very, very visible. And just in case the banner was missed, students could hear the bagpipes echoing off the
buildings loud and clear. Yes, we knew where we were.
And we had a clear mission: Promote the right
to life and the sanctity of marriage.
I wish you could have been there with us to feel the challenge. And you can.
Since you probably can’t put your life “on hold” to join us on the campuses of America
as a full-time volunteer, here’s the next best thing I’d ask you to please consider:
You can sponsor our work for moral values as a Guardian of Truth supporter -- and be a long
distance crusader in this great effort to save the family.
For example:
-- Your monthly gift of $9.00 ($0.30 a day) will help us print a steady stream of pro-family
handouts to give out on campus.
-- Your monthly gift of $26.00 (third tank of gas) will help us reach one campus a month.
-- A monthly gift of $52.00 (two-thirds tank of gas)
will help us visit 2 campuses a month.
-- And a generous monthly donation of $77.00 (full tank of gas) will help 12 volunteers to visit 3 campuses per
month. You can join here.
I hope you’ll consider my request and say “Yes.”
With God's help and your support, we will continue fighting and winning.
Thank you for
fighting the good fight.
