Hi Faith,
I am writing you to ask if you can help spread the word about Globalfamily Day (one day of peace and sharing), celebrated every January 1st by the citizens of the world. It is a day where individuals and families share food with friends (especially the needy), make personal pledges of non-violence, and spread a message of peace and sharing by ringing a bells or beating a drum in hopes of making society and the world a safer place to live.
Globalfamily Day is an official international day of peace and sharing. The day was co-founded by Linda Grover and Congressman John Conyers (chief sponsor of the Martin Luther King holiday). Globalfamily Day has twice received the unanimous support of the U.S. Congress (S. Con. Res. 138, S. Res. 582, H. Con. Res. 317), the UN General Assembly (Resolutions 54/29 and 56/2), thirty-plus sitting heads of state and ambassadors representing more than 2/3 of the worlds population.
We have two brand new resolutions pending in the US Senate and House of Representatives (S. Res. 357 and H. Con. Res. 221) asking all Americans to observe Globalfamily Day on January 1, 2010 and asking President Obama to invite world leaders to celebrate Globalfamiy Day. These resolutions will be introduced in congress this week. We are holding a press conference on Capitol Hill on December 16th. We hope we can get President Obama to support our initiative and get him to use Globalfamily Day as one of his Nobel Laureate projects.
Would you or any of your friends and associates be interested in helping us spread the word about the importance of celebrating a day of peace? If you are interested and available, please let me know how I can reach you by telephone or email. Feel free to call or email me at any time. Thank you so much for your wonderful thoughs. I hope we can continue this conversation. Carpe diem!
Sincerely

Hello Faith,
Some months ago, the unknown word mahaivi resounded in my mind at night. I took down a poem about Love and Life. And I sketched a symbol of Life. The following morning I looked up the word. It was an old Polynesian word that means "to live and be alive". We are officially launching it on 1/1/9. Please visit www.mahaivi.net and help to spread it as a universal symbol of Peace, Love and Life.
Faith, your ministry is so powerful - I can hardly wait for the songs I heard you perform yesterday in Oakland to be available on a CD. If you go to my personal page, you'll now find your song greeting my visitors. I "accidentally" uploaded it to that page instead of the front - and am now so glad. With Deepest Respect and Appreciation, Alana
Hi Faith, I do appreciate your wonderful talent, as I have been a fan since I first heard your beautiful voice when you first performed @ Leddy's House of Worship and Love.....
Peace Love, & Blessings,
Salik
Hi Faith, I'm so happy to see you here! I'd love to post one of your Peace songs to the front page, but like a silly sent your CD to my daughter. Please let me know if you'd like to have one with the perfect words to affirm our message play on the front page (no downloads allowed) and send me the mp3 for uploading (even a snip if you wish) by private email - you know the one!
