The Craven-Pamlico Christian Coalition: Meeting

The Craven-Pamlico Christian Coalition
will hold its first meeting of the year this coming Monday, January 16th, at Golden Corral in New Bern. The meeting begins at 7:00pm; however, guests are encouraged to arrive early for a meal to foster informal discussion and fellowship.

The meeting is open to all interested citizens. This year will be a very busy and important one for our country, and particularly for people of faith.

The coming months will prove to be very busy for the Craven-Pamlico Christian Coalition as we take a close look at all candidates and their positions on the issues.

The following will be on the agenda for Monday’s meeting:

2012 ELECTIONS:  We will be discussing what role CPCC will play in the upcoming elections, both the primary and the general election. For example, will we circulate our own voter’s guide? Will we sponsor candidate forums as we have in the past?

GOD & COUNTRY BANQUET:  In addition, we will be announcing the “Keynote Speaker” for this year’s GOD & COUNTRY BANQUET! Write the date on your calendar: September 17, 2012!

PRO-LIFE EFFORTS:  CPCC was listed as an organizational plaintiff in last fall’s litigation filed against the City of Jacksonville regarding protests at the Crist Clinic, an abortion provider. The plaintiffs were represented by the Thomas More Society and were successful in that litigation that now allow protests, with certain limitations, when we want and where we want. The Thomas More Society represented us at no charge, as they are a non-profit whose purpose is specifically to represent pro-life causes. We will also discuss at our meeting the possibility of the Craven-Pamlico Christian Coalition sending a donation to the Thomas More Society for the expenses they incurred on our behalf.
