Protect ourselves

Dear friends,
I just read this on a blog and thought I would post it for your consideration. The young man who is hosting this event at his farm near Leeds, Christopher Scigliano, is a friend of our family. Almost everyone is aware of the troubles in our land these days, but nobody is sure of what to do about them. Well, these people at:www.appleseedinfo.org have a plan to educate and train us to prepare for an uncertain future. Please read my further comments at the bottom.

The Appleseed Program is designed to take you from being a simple rifle owner to being a true rifleman. All throughout American history, the rifleman has been defined as a marksman capable of hitting a man-sized target from 500 yards away — no ifs, ands or buts. This 500-yard range is traditionally known as "the rifleman's quarter-mile." A rifleman can hit just about any target he can see. This skill was particulary evident in the birth of our country, and made the difference in winning the Revolutionary War. You'll hear the story that every American should hear; about how your forebears took up arms, on the first day of the American Revolution, and did things no other people in the world have ever done. You'll learn things you don't learn in school about that day. About where the Revolution really started — it didn't start in Lexington, nor did it start in Concord. According to Sam Adams, it was over before it started. Be there to hear The Story; because to hear it is to remember what they did that day, and to remember is to honor them for doing it. For more information about the Appleseed program; to register for the event; or to find out what to bring and how to prepare, please check out www.appleseedinfo.org.

I read once about Sweden outlawing guns. Within a year there was utter chaos as the criminals all had their guns while the law-abiding citizens were defenseless. THIS MUST NOT HAPPEN HERE! It's only in being prepared in ALL ways, including spiritually, that we can hope to defend ourselves against the threat of the United Nations taking over our country and taking away our freedoms.
Please prayerfully read this information and send it to whomever the Lord leads you to share it with. I think that Andrew will probably be allowed to go but the rest of us will be needed here at home. Let's all prayerfully consider our preparations for the future.
Concerned,
Dawn
