LETTER TO PASTOR  Reverend John Higgins, Sr. Pastor
Calvary Tri City Church
2334 East Southern
Tempe AZ 85282
info@calvarytricity.com

Dear Reverend Higgins:

Project Strait Gate is organizing peace demonstrations at Churches in Phoenix. Sunday we are visiting your church with the prayer that we cause you leaders to examine your own posture and make a public commitment in regard to the serial wars cycle in the Mideast and the destruction of human life certain to result from our nation's current posture.

This letter is about morality, not politics. Our purpose is to influence fellow Christ-followers to publicly oppose the continued assassination and slow death of the innocent. We believe that any nation, no matter how noble its history, is doomed to mediocrity, immorality and failure if it allows its leaders to opt for one war after another. We point to the British Empire, with its dead state churches, as an example of what we do not want. It is a lesson of history that Christianity is trodden under the boot of the warmaking society.

Project Strait Gate is offering to visit churches, synagogues,schools and mosques with non-partisan educational programs. In some of these we are invited to present programs based upon our recent fact-finding trip to the Gaza Strip. We also provide a detailed biblical explanation of why many "Evangelical Christian Right" leaders are choosing to support serial wars. If you would like to discuss such a program, please call us.

We Hold These Truth's leaders are for the most part 3rd and 4th generation Americans, business and professional men, who venerate the founding documents of our country and the freedom of religion so unique to America. The majority has served their country in the military, this writer served twice. Some of us are also members or former members of evangelical churches.

Anti-war demonstrations continue to erupt in record numbers and sizes all over the world, but most are held in the wrong places. Churches are where the education must be done. A nation-wide movement, Project Strait Gate, visits America's churches with a message of peace and brotherly love, as taught by our Savior in a similar time of war and hatred, combined with hard facts about the Mideast. Christ calls the leaders of the church to be "peacemakers." He did not call us to make war in his name.

Jesus said, "for as much as you have done to the least of these (brothers) you have done to me" and "suffer the little children to come unto me" and of course, the great and humble Beatitude, "Blessed are the peacemakers, for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven." We invite you publicly or privately to show us where Jesus ever made even one statement that allowed a Christian to approve or participate in the taking of the life of a Palestinian or Iraqi, especially a child?
Jesus' words dictate the need for Project Strait Gate. We hope Arizona pastors will see fit to meet with us and join in our endeavor.

Toward the strait gate,
C. E. Carlson, Director
