Washington, DC -- Christ Otto has spent the past 21 years of his life in ministry founding churches and working as everything from a pastry chef and worship leader to a hotel clerk and vocal coach. Little did he know he would become best known around the country as the founder of the Red Envelope Project.

Inspired during a prayer, Otto came up with the idea of sending red envelopes to President Barack Obama to protest his pro-abortion policies.

I bet he is not the least bit surprised. They all feign surprise when they aren’t. Is this part of the training to be a lefty?

Let’s do it!

I’ll pick up some Red Envelopes this weekend and sent them to the new fuhrer.

I’ll also cross-post on some other boards.

These envelopes will be a reminder to “the one” of just how much blood will be on his hands. Unfortunately, it won’t change his heart that is bent on taking as many lives with him as possible.

reread the post, please - he is pleasantly surprised by the groundswell of support of others doing as he imagined, sending red envelopes to Obama to protest his pro-abort stance.

I think you are misunderstanding a bit.

But it is a good idea so I am glad you posted this.

The article ends with a offer to sell you some red envelopes????

You could probably get some on clearance this Sunday after Valentines Day.

March 31 is Red Envelope Day.

The idea is to address a red envelope or post card to mail to President Obama on this day.

The envelope remains empty, Just seal it.

Address it to:

President Obama
The White House
1600 Pennslyvania Avenue NW
Washington, D.C.20500

On the other side of the envelope write:

(This red envelope represents a life that was taken because of abortion.

It is empty because the life taken can no longer be a part of our world.)

Most of us have a red greeting card envelope around the house somewhere that would be suitable to use, but you could make one out of red construction paper, etc., following these directions: How To Make An Envelope
