Subject: LIGHT UP OUR NATION'S SKY - SEPT. 25, 2001 Subject: Fw: LIGHT UP OUR NATION'S SKY - SEPT. 25, 2001 Americans - we can make a difference...... LIGHT UP OUR NATION'S SKY I urge you to read this in its entirety and take action. The terrorist attacks on our country on September 11, 2001 have caused us immeasurable suffering, sadness and outrage. Many of us from shore to shore watched in disbelief as these horrific war crimes unfolded before our very eyes. So many of us have wanted to do something, anything to help. Many have helped in the rescue and many have given blood. All of our attempts to help are paled by the tremendous loss of life and suffering that is going on at this very moment. We as citizens of this great country can make a big difference if we join together as a nation. WE ARE GOING TO LIGHT UP AMERICA AT NIGHT AND SHARE IN A TIME OF UNITY, PRAYER AND SORROW FOR ALL THE INNOCENT LIVES LOST AND SHOW THE WORLD THAT WE ARE TRULY ONE NATION, UNDER GOD, INDIVISIBLE, WITH LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR ALL! These words transcend time, yet mean more to each of us today. On Tuesday, September 25, 2001 our Nation will come together as one for a Candlelight Memorial for all affected by this tragedy at the times listed below for 15 MINUTES. These are the times when our entire nation will be dark. > > Pacific: 8:00pm till 8:15pm > > Mountain: 9:00pm till 9:15pm > > Central: 10:00pm till 10:15pm > > Eastern: 11:00pm till 11:15pm > > During the above times, individuals, businesses, cities, municipalities, fire stations, ball parks, car dealerships, malls (the list is infinite), virtually any person or place, please do the following: > > For 15 minutes turn on every light you can. At home turn on all of your outside lights, and flood lights, shine any lights you can. Turn on your high beams on your vehicles in your driveways. Turn off you air-conditioning and non-essential appliances as not to cause power issues. Hold flashlights and candles to the sky and, if you believe in prayer, please pray. Pray for all that are hurting, Pray for our President and our Leaders, Pray for Peace. Businesses turn on your lights that can be seen by the sky, light up your business as much as possible. City officials I urge you to light up your cities for these few short minutes. In order for this to work we need as many people as possible to do the following: As soon as you get this, forward it to others. Don't waste a minute. Forward it to as many people that you can as far across our country as quickly as possible. Time is everything for mass coverage. Copy this and spread it around your neighborhoods, work places and schools. Get the word out and ask everyone to do the same. If you would like to help further, call your local municipalities and " key " people in your communities and work places and challenge them to help. This is a grass roots effort and we need " take charge " people in every city and town across the nation to make this happen. Most importantly, call your local news stations and get them involved. A little tenacity will go along way. If you're a " Key " person in your community, use your resources to its fullest capacity to share this information with other leaders and staff in the work place and government. We need everybody. All News Media, national and local, we need your help. Please broadcast the Candlelight Memorial plans throughout the cities and the nation. ON SEPTEMBER 25, 2001 WE WILL LIGHT UP THE SKY ACROSS OUR GREAT NATION, EVERY CORNER OF THE WORLD WILL SEE VIA SATELLITES OUR NATION GLOW IN THE NIGHT AND THEY WILL KNOW WE STAND UP AGAINST EVIL AS ONE NATION, WE GRIEVE AS ONE NATION, AND WE CONTINUE AS ONE NATION. As our President W. Bush said, " These acts shatter steel, but they cannot dent the steel of American Resolve. " God Bless those suffering God Bless America ALL PEOPLE SMILE IN THE SAME LANGUAGE.... --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).
