Plea from Philippines
I received an urgent plea from Maria Theresa-Nera-Lauron, WACC member in Manila, asking for e-mail support that will shed more light on political killings in the Philippines. Human rights leaders and religious leaders are being assasinated with increasing affront.
'til later.

Hi Adan,
The Uniting Church in Australia has received recent news about these killings, and in particular of religious practitioners, both Catholic and Protestant, who have fallen victim in the quest for social justice.
Emails are arriving to the Philippines from all over Australia, to churches, Filipino MPs and their consulate offices down under. a coordinated assualt of communications are rising from relgiious groups al around Australia in response to these news.
It is very heartening, but of course, is not nearly enough.
