“An Invitation” by Eric Atcheson

Eric Atcheson

If you believe in the empowerment of the soul, and of the soul’s capacity to do incredible things both great and small…

…I invite you to walk with us.

If you speak out at the sight of injustice, and if you cry out against the degradations of poverty…

…I invite you to hold hands with us.

If you pray for peace, and if you long for a world where weapons of war only exist as displays in museums…

…I invite you to pray with us.

If you wish to create a tomorrow where basic human rights such as education and health care are no longer privileges, but are available to all of us, the children of God…

…I invite you to break bread with us.

If you hope for a civilization that will never subject a human to the indignities of torture, and that will testify to end the humiliation of the shackled…

…I invite you to touch the world with us.

If you hunger for a time when the people uphold the charge God gave to us to preserve and care for the creation…

…I invite you to work with us.

We can work to transcend the obstacles placed before us, we can work to elevate the places that others have been cast to within society, and we can work to bring about the change necessary to usher in a brighter world for all creation.

We are Clergy for Obama….I invite you to join us.

Yes we can,
