Special Exhibit – “Rooted in Prayer: Biblical Truths for Everyday Living” Billy Graham Library
In our ever-changing world people are losing sight of
the power of prayer. Billy Graham once said,
“Remember that God helps us when we pray…
This is a mystery we will never fully understand this
side of Heaven but it also is a great comfort.” The
Bible says in Philippians 4:4-7, “Rejoice in the Lord
always. … In everything, by prayer and petition,
with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And by the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”

March Against Monsanto...Take Hold Of Your Food!
Event Time 12:30 pm
On May 25, activists around the world will unite to March Against Monsanto. We will be meeting at Marshall Park in uptown Charlotte around 1:30 and will march @2. Why do we march? Research studies have shown that Monsanto?s genetically-modified foods can lead to serious health conditions such as the development of cancer tumors, infertility and birth defects. In the United States, the FDA, the agency tasked with ensuring food safety for the population, is steered by ex-Monsanto executives, and we feel that?s a questionable conflict of interests and explains the lack of government-lead research on the long-term effects of GMO products. Recently, the U.S. Congress and president collectively passed the nicknamed ?Monsanto Protection Act? that, among other things, bans courts from halting the sale of Monsanto?s genetically-modified seeds. For too long, Monsanto has been the benefactor of corporate subsidies and political favoritism. Organic and small farmers suffer losses while Monsanto continues to forge its monopoly over the world?s food supply, including exclusive patenting rights over seeds and genetic makeup. Monsanto's GMO seeds are harmful to the environment; for example, scientists have indicated they have caused colony collapse among the world's bee population. What are solutions we advocate? Voting with your dollar by buying organic and boycotting Monsanto-owned companies that use GMOs in their products. Labeling of GMOs so that consumers can make those informed decisions easier. Repealing relevant provisions of the US's "Monsanto Protection Act." Calling for further scientific research on the health effects of GMOs. Holding Monsanto executives and Monsanto-supporting politicians accountable through direct communication, grassroots journalism, social media, etc. Continuing to inform the public about Monsanto's secrets. Taking to the streets to show the world and Monsanto that we won't take these injustices quietly. http://www.march-against-monsanto.com/ We will not stand for cronyism. We will not stand for poison. That?s why we March Against Monsanto.
