3/4 Tues 10:30 am Don Timmerman and Roberta Thurstin of Park
Falls go to court for Civil Resistance
to the War in Iraq – Wausau. In Branch 3 at the Marathon Co.
Courthouse. They were charged with disorderly conduct after refusing to leave a ”sit-in”
at Rep. Obey's office when asking that he no
longer fund the occupation of Iraq. They remember the many people who have lived a life of nonviolent resistance - and think of present
friends who live out lives of nonviolent resistance to those things that do not
promote life – including Fr. Jerry Zawada, a humble, gentle man who
nonviolently speaks truth to lies. "Nonviolence is positive action
for true good for all of God's creation, motivated by love, using only means
that help and do not harm." - words from "The Way of
Peace" by Shannon McManimon. May we
all work by the unique gifts given to each of us toward that positive
action. Peace, Roberta
