Save Darfur.org :: Add Your Voice

charlie at travels with blood:water mission blog says this:
When President Bush became president 6 years ago, he mentioned the Rwandan Genocide and remarked, "Not on my watch!". I visited a website recently, and sent a digital post card to the White House reminding them of this, and encouraging them to do what they can to bring an end to the merciless killing of innocents in Sudan. It literally only takes half a minute, and I believe, is a great way to use our voice. Please check out this site, and consider sending an e-card. There's not always a lot we can do in these situations, but we have the information, and this is something simple that shows we care, and encourages our leaders to do the same. After all, they represent us. Thanks for considering this, my friends!

What?!? Our leaders represent us???

Sorry. Feelin' cynical. I'll visit the site. I hate our inattention to this.

Okay, I'm back. I read the guy's blog--his new one with the story of the mission, and it was powerful. One thing that struck me was how Psalms 10 was equated with these sorts of tragedy....

You have some good links on here!
