CAS-IAP Announcement

Our initiation of the CAS Israel Advocacy Project is now kicking into first gear, with specific outreach to both the entire congregation and individual members, and a meeting on December 6th at 7:45 p.m.

This week's news is also to spread the excitement about a CAS IAP blog
Log onto: http://cas-israel.blogspout.com/ for action alerts and updates.

The first formal CAS IAP meeting, held a few months ago, produced agreement on excellent projects for the coming year. (Thank you to the patient group!)
The following ideas emerged:
1. Five minute set asides at CAS meetings for cell phone calls to Congress (for current action requests.)
2. Youth group essay contest "Why Israel is Important to Me."
3. Rotating home showings of the powerful film "Iranium."
4. Guest speaker from CUFI (Christians United for Israel) a powerful and passionate Israel lobbying group on Capitol hill and around the U.S.
5. Weekly "Action Alerts" in the CAS Bulletin.

Stay tuned for further developments! We welcome your comments and interest!
Todah!
