MARRIAGE SAVERS DOES MADISON!!

This weekend, Friday April 19 from noon to 1pm about 100 pastors will sign
America's 160th Community Marriage Policy (CMP) in Madison, Wisconsin under
the dome of the State Capitol.  The Lt. Governor and the Speaker of the
House will be there to honor the clergy from liberal and conservative
churches, Catholic and Protestant, evangelical and mainline, black and
white.  Marriage Savers has worked two years to organize this CMP, with
their Midwest Director Larry Ballard doing the legwork.  Mike & Harriet
McManus will train both Mentor Couples and pastors from a number of these
churches on Friday night from 6:30 - 10pm and on Saturday from 8:30am - 5pm.
