Jim Wallis & Sojourners are leading a petition drive to be released next week calling for the lamenting and repenting of the war in Iraq.
"This season of Lent, we are truly living “ in darkness and in the shadow of death” as we mark, on March 19, 2008, the fifth anniversary of the war with Iraq. It is a war that is being waged by our country, financed by our taxes, and fought by our sisters and brothers. As U.S. Christians, we issue a call to the American church to lament and repent of the sin of this war.
Signatories include Tony Campolo, Brian McLaren, and Fr. Richard Rohr.
