A Personal Message from Chris Hobgood Like many of you, I oppose the war in Iraq and believe the best way to support our troops is to bring them home soon. If you agree with me, please sign a petition calling for the end of the Iraq War and for creative solutions to achieve peace in the Middle East. By joining our voices with our ecumenical and interfaith partners, we strengthen the faith-based movement in opposition to the war. By speaking out as Disciples, we build momentum for opposition to the war as we head into General Assembly in Fort Worth. So please join me and other Disciples in making this important statement by signing the petition today. CLICK HERE to read and sign the petition.
