For your newspaper to castigate Shannon Gove because she does not grovel at the feet of Jerry Brown is pathetic. Really...a bullet train from Bakersfield to Madera? Jerry Brown's plans have achieved nothing as yet except talk. Save the victory lap until something is actually better.

"Our purpose statement is on all our advertising and it is printed in the program each year," he told me. "It states that we gather in the name and spirit of Jesus. We do not hide that. What would make it exclusive would be to state that only 'Christians' or only 'Followers of Jesus' are invited. That has never been the case"........are you kidding me? If a group of Muslims stated that "we gather in the name and spirit if Allah", would Christians attend? Mr. Hanson, you, sir haven't a clue.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6931942690068259127.post-28978875278548003692013-01-22T16:01:08.460-08:002013-01-22T16:01:08.460-08:00Jews pray...They will let anyone buy a ticket to t...Jews pray...They will let anyone buy a ticket to the prayer breakfast, and they will treat any other faith well.

If anyone of any religion bought a ticket to that event, they would be treated well. No feathers ruffled here. As a Christian, I have more in common with a Jew than any other faith. All world faiths have dignity.<br />Kristyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10123715741732991912noreply@blogger.com
