Last night there were many people from our stake that gathered together for a Prop 8 Rally! We met at the middle school at 4:45 and split up into groups and went and showed our support. We stood at busy intersections and encouraged others to vote YES on Prop 8, restoring the traditional definition of marriage and to protect our school children! We had LOTS Of honking in support and a few that uh.... were NOT supportive! But, overall it was FUN and a memorable experience for our youth! I hope and pray that the people of California will have a softening of heart and realize their morals and standards and vote YES!!!
We are poll watchers today... which means we are assigned to two different polling places and go and check and see who has voted (we have a list of people that told us when we went door to door that they would vote YES on Prop 8) We mark off names who have voted and IF they have NOT voted we either call them and remind them to go vote or take a "door hanger" to put on their front door reminding them! This has been a lot of fun and it will be great memories!

Hey you guys. We are all praying for you here. Keep up the good works. It will bless your life and ours.
YES - we did that too last night! Check it out: "Prop 8 is Not About H8te"
Did any of you encounter any No on 8 people? How did it go?
That's so great that you got involved. I certainly hope it goes through!
We are in the home stretch I feel good about everything I have done. I just hope the people of California realize what is at stake.
Good for you! When (and where) can we find out whether it passed or not?
We just heard from Glen, he is at the headquarters and he said it is tied!!!! Every vote tonight is going to count!!!
Rebecca & Letti, it has been great... lots of work but fun at the same time, huh?

How awesome! Go Prop 8 :)
Good for you to get involved. We did the same thing. It was fun. Door hangers and poll watching. Oh, yes and a lot of praying. I think both AZ and CA passed! Thank Goodness. m
WELL???????????????
Good for you for being so involved!! I'm not in CA but I have been paying close attention to how this is turning out over there!
Way to go! Your good work will pay off for years and years to come!!! Great photos!
I saw that Prop 8 passed! I'm sure it was largely due to all the fasting and hard work from church members and I think it's awesome!
I ahve more pics, but these turned out better than mine did...so if you still want them, I got them! That was so much fun!!
