I'm happy to announce that we gained 50 members during the time we ran our membership drive and fundraiser for Chris Morley.  We have sent Walter Maksym, Chris's attorney, $500 to be counted towards Chris's defense fund.

Thanks to everyone who joined during this time and also a big thanks to everyone who donated separately to Chris's defense.  We raised another nearly $1,500 through online contributions for Chris!!!!!

The Fellowship is still young, but growing steadily.  We're very happy to have the opportunity to help someone out even at this stage.  I'm personally excited to help Chris out since he's a friend of mine.  I also can feel for Chris for what he's going through right now as I went through the same thing in 2006 through 2007.  I'd ask that we all stand behind Chris not just financially but also by letting it be known that we will not tolerate another law-abiding citizen being prosecuted when it is crystal clear that there has been NO VIOLATION OF LAW.  Politics, personal beliefs, and emotion should not rule over a law-abiding citizen's life.

We hope to see these bogus charges dropped this month.  Chris doesn't deserve a long fight in court like I've been fighting (and still am in appeals).  Be ready to let it be known that we will stand behind Chris no matter what happens.
