CAP: 1000 churches wanted to register voters

In this issue:

1) Wanted: 1000 Churches
2) Video from D.C. on Abortion
3) Start a FALL Truth Project Group
4) Conference Call for Pastors



1) Wanted: 1000 Churches

We are well on the way to our goal of 1000 churches hosting voter registration drives. Check out the growing list of churches on our web site. Is your church on the list yet? Have you done a voter registration drive?

It's easy to register voters. Check out our Voter Information Center online, and don't hesitate to call us for assistance with planning a drive. CAP is here to help!



2) Video from D.C. on Abortion

Despite the fact that Americans overwhelmingly disapprove of spending taxpayer dollars to fund abortions, abortion organizations receive hundreds of millions of dollars every year through state and federal grants. Now, you can watch video of the U.S. House of Representatives from earlier this month, as members questioned why taxpayer dollars are funding abortions and why there is a huge disparity between funding for abortion clinics versus crisis pregnancy centers.

And, don't miss the comments from Arizona Congressman Trent Franks and other panelists at a forum discussing the Child Interstate Abortion Notification Act ("CIANA"). The CIANA would require that one parent of a pregnant minor be notified before an abortion is performed on his or her daughter when the young girl has been taken across state lines for the abortion.



3) Start a FALL Truth Project Group

Are you a Truth Project Leader? Consider hosting a group this fall and listing it at CAP's web site! If you are interested in either hosting or joining a group this fall, visit www.azpolicy.org/truthproject. Keep checking back; we expect many groups to launch this fall!

Also, Saturday, August 9, CAP is heading to Yuma to host a Truth Project Partner Training Event at Calvary Temple of Christ. Partner Training events are designed for those who are already committed to leading The Truth Project as a small group. The agenda focuses on training and vision components, your role as a leader, the expectations of your small group, and a sampling of the curriculum via DVD.

Anyone wishing to go deeper with the Lord and be transformed will be incredibly blessed by this high quality, comprehensive study! Register online today. Print and distribute this flier to friends.



4) Conference Call for Pastors

On November 4, Arizona, California, and Florida will be voting on the definition of marriage. Sensing the need for spiritual unity and solidarity on this issue, a group of California pastors have invited Arizona and Florida pastors to join in the effort to protect marriage.

Arizona pastors are invited to join over 1600 California and Florida pastors on a conference call Wednesday, July 30, 10:00 a.m. to 11:45 a.m.

Online registration is required at www.protectmarriagesd.com. Click "Arizona Sites" to look for a location near you. If none are listed, please consider becoming a host site. If you can be a host site, please contact Chris Clark ASAP at marriagequestion4@skylinechurch.org or 619-415-5453.

Please let your pastor know about this important call. Together we can stand for marriage in our states.
