We would like to extend an offer to you and your friends to go to Crawford TX to be there for the last week of the vigil.

What is happening there is incredible and very spiritually uplifting with all the showing of love and support.

Besides, we need to be there to support Cindy and also to communicate to America that this is much bigger than just a one-woman fight against the war machine.

The cost of the trip will be a minimum payment of $1... or whatever you can afford. The bus holds 48 passengers and the average cost is $270 per person. I am hoping that others will step up and contribute if they are not able to attend which will help finance those able to go yet unable to afford it.
