Friends:
The first priority of the Global Truth And Reconciliation Commission
(GTRC) effort, is to call upon people to stimulate their thoughts and
actions toward meeting the minimum needs of all the people of the world.
That is why we pray, "May GOD BLESS THE WHOLE WORLD."
An overarching Global Truth is that almost half the global population
of 6 billion people is mired in poverty and poor health. This need not
be.
The global economy of today focuses on creating unnecessary wants, rather
than focusing regionally and locally in meeting the basic needs of all
adults and children. It operates in part, by making people want goods
and services they can do without. It relies on the elite to lead the
process of wasteful consumption so that others may aspire to follow,
sustaining the process. The few who benefit from this life style defend
it.
Were our energies not sidetracked to pursue wasteful consumption, we
would opt to share and care, as an expression of our love and concern
to enable the impoverished (our brothers and sisters in Mexico, India,
Vietnam, Africa, etc.) to meet their minimum needs. Our stand would sensitize
the world's elites and haves, to restructure globalization to develop
regional and local market and cooperative economies, focused on responding
effectively to meeting the minimum needs of the world's 3 billion 'have-nots'.
Your support is important to this effort. Please JOIN US to bring about
economic reconciliation, education, and social peace IN THIS EMERGENCY.
