COLUMBUS, Ohio, Oct. 25 /U.S. Newswire/ -- An array of Christian leaders from different denominations including Assemblies of God, Baptist, Catholic, Evangelical and Pentecostal will rally to get out the vote on Wednesday night, October 27 at 7:30 PM in the Christian Assembly, 4099 Karl Road in Columbus, Ohio. Among the anticipated speakers are Jay Alan Sekulow, esq., consitutional lawyer and radio and television personality, Ms. Alveda King, niece of the Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr., Fr. Frank Pavone of EWTN radio and television, Ms. Norma McCorvey, Jane Roe of Roe V. Wade and the Revs. Rob and Paul Schenck of Faith and Action in the nation's capital."The outcome of this election is now in the hands of Christians who take their faith seriously" said Dr. Paul Schenck from his office directly accross the street from the US Supreme Court in Washington. "The message of the rally is: Christians are responsible to use the stewardship of their vote to be sure those in public office defend and advocate for life from conception to natural death, the sanctity of the marriage bond between a man and woman, and the acknowldgment of God in public." He stressed there will no mention of any candidate, campaign or party.
Dr. Paul Schenck is the coordinator for the rally, he and some of the personalities appearing will be available for interviews or statements.
Jay is a Messianic Jew, and has tried cases in the US Supreme Court.
He is a real heavyweight.
Oh?? I totally missed that. That issue alone has the very real potential of bringing out the Christian vote en masse. And where there are Christians, there are Bush supporters. (Which means the ACLU and other Leftists will cry foul and insist that these churches lose their tax-exempt status.)
Thanks for posting this!

If you have not made a second contribution, would you please provide us with this support today.
We must purchase our final ads on Tuesday morning.
We know we are asking a lot, but you also know that our message is critical to our nation's future.
Thank you, and God Bless America.
That's an excellent move. Polls have Kerry ahead in Ohio, while 57 percent of the voters there want the marriage Amendment. Many voters there are uninformed/ignorant and need to be educated, for sure.
If enough of them are informed on Kerry's and the Democrats' direction with homosexual so-called "marriage," Bush will win in Ohio, for sure.
Jay is awesome........a true gift from God.......

"The outcome of this election is now in the hands of Christians who take their faith seriously"
I would agree. God seems to judge a nation based on what his people do.
If we throw a true man of God out of office and replace him with someone like Kerry, you be we'll be judged.
Welcome to CatholicsAgainstKerry.com,
where we encourage you to vote Catholic, not kerry... Thank you for visiting CAK! You are the
visitor to learn the truth about Kerry!
Sen. John Kerry stands with Kate Michelman (right) President of NARAL Pro-Choice America - the country's most liberal pro-abortion group
At Catholics Against Kerry we ask all Catholics to consider these questions:
1) Are Senator Kerry’s political positions, campaign themes, and voting records Catholic positions, themes, and records?
2) Do you support a candidate who voted to allow minors to be transported across state lines for an abortion in order to avoid having to notify their parents they were getting an abortion?
3) Should Catholic charities and hospitals be forced to provide contraceptives and abortions? California and New York both require Catholic Charities to provide contraceptive insurance coverage. Now the people behind these bills want to force Catholic hospitals to provide abortions. Kerry states that he “supports requiring insurance plans to cover contraception” and he cosponsored a bill requiring all Catholic employers to provide all forms of birth control, including the abortifacient morning after pill. This bill allowed no religious exemption, not even the hyper narrow exemption provided in the California law. Why is John Kerry demanding that Catholics either abandon their charitable actions or abandon their faith? Why can’t we be left alone to help people?
4) When Senator Kerry votes in favor of the most gruesome form of abortion, marches in parades with pro-abortion forces, spends time visiting Planned Parenthood clinics, and speaks before militant pro-abortion groups like NARAL, are his actions consistent with your Catholic values?
5) Does your faith support same sex marriage? Senator Kerry voted against the Defense of Marriage Act and supports homosexual civil unions. Two years ago when he wasn’t running for president – John Kerry co-signed a letter opposing a proposed Massachusetts Constitutional amendment that would have prevented the Massachusetts Courts from recently imposing same sex marriage on an unwilling population. Are these actions consistent with your values?
6) Do you go to Church to worship or to be seen? As one of many “Catholic” photo ops, the Kerry campaign called reporters days before Easter Sunday to tell them where he was going to Mass, ensuring photographers for a Catholic photo op, and ensuring newspaper headlines like "Kerry Attends Easter Services and Receives Holy Communion." Why must it be political fodder that a Catholic attends Mass on Easter?
7) If, as Senator Kerry has, you made public statements contradicting the Holy Father to politically distance yourself from the Catholic Church, would you then ask Catholics to vote for you because you are "one of us"?
We don’t wish to judge Senator Kerry’s heart. However, as Catholics we have an obligation to judge his politics to determine if we support his candidacy or not. We have to ask questions, and hold our own answers up to the light and weigh them. Is John Kerry the candidate a genuine “Catholic candidate” or a genuine threat to Catholic values? Is John Kerry "one of us"?
Catholics are a key voting block in this election! We encourage you to:
