NEEDED IN WHITEHALL TONIGHT!

By: Steve Huston

Tonight – Monday (9/20/21) – 6:30 PM – Whitehall Viking Athletic Complex (541 East Slocum St.)

We urge you to come outand show strong support for children and parents who don’t want their children to be bullied or force fed the propaganda that is heavy-handedly being forced upon the students of Whitehall by the Gay-Straight Alliance and by a school administration that isn’t being held accountable by its school board. The school’s job is NOT social engineering and the board’s job is to represent the parents of the community and ensure that the administration runs its schools in teaching facts not feelings.

Why is this meeting a matter of urgency? We need a large representation tonight because the teacher’s union has sent out an email asking teachers to show up in strength tonight. They hope to overwhelm parents and children who are taking a stand against their school advancing homosexual ideology. Greater numbers and compassionate yet firm spoken truth will show that we care about the students, the school, and the community in which you live. Even if you don’t live in the Whitehall district or choose not to speak your presence will help to send a message and show your concern for what is happening.

Whenever two opposing thoughts meet, there will be disagreement, that’s the nature of opposing ideas. Most people don’t like disagreement but we shouldn’t fear it. We mustn’t get caught up in it as a battle of ideas, but rather, speak the truth and let truth defend itself. We must always stand, defending the rights and needs of our children while continuing to care for those with whom we disagree. The old adage is truth: You catch more flies with honey than vinegar. Recognizing the key word is “more;” we will not win everyone.

Solomon wisely exhorts, “A soft answer turneth away wrath: but grievous words stir up anger.” Pray before you attend that God would give you the right heart and the words to say. If you cannot attend, please pray for the situation and those, from both sides, who will be in attendance.

We urge you to show your support for righteousness and for those students and parents who need their voices to be heard.

Tonight – Monday (9/20/21) – 6:30 PM – Whitehall Viking Athletic Complex (541 East Slocum St.)
