Previously posted Campaign Story - Late 2021

The agents of the Tal!b@n are actively hunting the father and mother of this family, because they worked with the previous government of Afg#@nistan and also for a humanitarian organization.

 

The family is in immediate danger, and so we cannot share more details than this on the accessible internet where the bad guys can find it. Please feel free to contact me - click "Contact" below and I can share more details securely. The details describe an innocent, righteous family under threat from a terrifying evil.

 

We want to bring this family safe to Saskatoon. To sponsor them, we need to raise enough money for them to be secure in Canada for one year.

 

It seems like alot of money for one person to give.

But to keep a family alive, and allow their children to grow and give to the world, it seems like a bargain.

 

And for a community of caring individuals, who can give $2 or $5, it seems to be a matter of how many people want to participate in the greatest act of kindness we can imagine. I think there's a lot of us.

 

Are you like me? Are you discouraged by how much division and unkindness has arisen in response to a terrible pandemic? Do you feel frustrated by how tempting it is to be unkind, and how difficult it is to show real kindness? Sometimes I even wonder if I will forget how to be kind.

 

This family needs refuge. Canada has it for them. The only thing we need right now is money.

 

If you take the 3 minutes of effort to contribute as little as $5 to this fundraiser, you can participate in life-giving kindness to this frightened and lonely family - and when they land in Saskatoon, you too can rejoice that you have not forgotten how to be kind.

 

The bad guys have this family's photo and people are disappearing while you read this - we need to raise this money as soon as possible.

 

Please donate now.

 

Please share this fundraiser.

 

Thank you, and may the almighty and all-merciful God bless us all.
