2 Corinthians 4:5
Literature Dropping
Thousands of Madison homes were lit dropped with
"Homosexuality: The Truth" and a flyer titled
"Representative Mark Pocan: Siding with Perversion Against
Children." The second flyer documents sodomite Pocan's (D-Madison)
frantic defense of his brethren's tax-funded, open-air bathhouse on the
Wisconsin River near Mazomanie. The town of Kimberly was
lit dropped as were Clinton, Black Earth,
and Mazomanie. WCU also began a systematic effort to lit
drop in the city of Kenosha, a real hot bed of
pro-homosexual propagandists. The Kenosha effort will continue on for a
number of months. If you would like to help, give WCU a call. Back

AIDS Walk Witness

"...Choose ye this day whom ye will serve..."
Joshua 1:15
|
This year, Sodom's offspring gleefully boasted that
they would avoid WCU's witness by scheduling the Sunday AIDS Walk a
half-hour earlier, knowing that it would be very hard for Christians to
get to the location in time with the walk starting at noon. The organizers
of the walk also smugly stated that the route had been changed and they
were not going to give out the new course to anyone. Of course, WCU simply
set up our banners at the finish gate this year, and what a blessing it
was to be able to witness and preach to the thousands of walkers for a far
greater amount of time as they straggled to the finish lines in small
groups instead of having rushed by in mass from the starting line as in
other years. What a blessing it is to see God confound the wicked and
bless the efforts of His people! Amidst much mocking and threatening, even
by several police officers, hundreds of tracts were distributed, the Word
of God was strongly preached, and the world passing by saw the Church of
Jesus Christ taking an uncompromised stand against the "unfruitful
works of darkness." Back to

Mazo Beach

"Ye are the salt of the earth." WCU picket
of the DNR headquarters in Madison, WI.
|
WCU's petition drive continues in the
towns near Mazo beach. If you can be of help, please call us.
On October 8, 120 people joined together to picket
the state DNR headquarters. The good turn-out, compelling messages on our
signs, and the literature we handed out sent a strong message to DNR head
George Meyer. A number of DNR workers expressed shame over the beach that
their department is maintaining at Mazo.

On October 27, a legislative hearing
was held in Mazomanie concerning a bill which has been introduced by
Representative Duane Johnsrud. Almost two-hundred people showed up, the
vast majority of them to register and testify against the Mazo beach,
although many could not give unqualified support to Johnsrud's bill. (See
Pastor Ovadal's statement.) The hearing featured a number of local
citizens relating shocking stories of the harm that Mazo beach has caused
them and their children. Also taking an impassioned stand against the nude
beach were a number of sportsmen and several persons holding positions on
various conservation boards. The one theme which seemed to dominate the
entire affair was that public nudity is already unlawful in Wisconsin and
the DNR should simply put an end to the nudity at Mazo beach.
At the same time, a small number of nudists of several
sexual persuasions selfishly insisted their "right" to cavort
naked, even in front of children, be preserved. By the end of the hearing,
a number of legislators on the committee dropped all pretense of having
any respect for the nudists and began to show open disgust with their
claims. Back to top.
Media & Speaking
Opportunities
WCU director Ralph Ovadal did a number of media
interviews during September and October. Pastor Ovadal was also privileged
to speak to a meeting of eleven Missouri Synod Lutheran Pastors. The event
went very well and each pastor was given a copy of Answering Sodom. Back

The Legislative
Front
Recently, Ralph Ovadal wrote each state assemblymen and
senator to encourage him to take a strong stance against any and all
pro-homosexual legislation. Speaking on behalf of WCU, Pastor Ovadal
reminded the legislators that there is a growing number of citizens who
are very serious about rolling back the sodomite tide and that a
pro-homosexual political stance could become increasingly costly to hold.
Thus far, Pastor Ovadal has received a number of encouraging letters and
even phone calls in reply.
As of this writing, Sodom's favorite son Representative
Mark Pocan is gathering co-sponsors for two legislative bills that he
plans on introducing in the near future. If voted into law, one measure
would create a statewide domestic partnership registry under which
"all benefits recognized by the state for spouses in marriage would
be afforded to domestic partnerships, including adoption, inheritance, tax
filing benefits, insurance benefits, property rights and more . . ."
Pocan's other bill "would allow any governmental
entity which utilizes the [state insurance] pool to offer health insurance
coverage to their employee's domestic partners." Both of these
measures will also be introduced into the State Senate with Fred Risser as
the sponsor.
The important thing to do with regard to Pocan's latest
impending assaults on the law of God is to call and/or write your state
representative and senator to remind them in no uncertain terms that you
expect them to work and vote against any legislation which would benefit
the homosexual cause--any legislation no matter how innocuous it may seem.
You might want to let them know that there is a growing number of citizens
who view a pro-homosexual political stance to be a disqualification for
public office.
On the flip side of the coin, Representative Steve Nass
has introduced a bill, AB500, to prohibit the state from negotiating
health benefits for unmarried couples of any gender mix. Back
