Greetings,
Columbans have been in Pakistan for many years and we are very saddened by the assassination of Shahbaz Bhatti,Federal Minister for Minorities. We desire to respond to this tragedy, but do not want to endanger Columbans who continue to live and serve in Pakistan. For this reason, we have created a letter to the Ambassador from Pakistan and have put it in a petition format.
Please sign as individuals or as organizations. Under the circumstances, we will be signing as individuals and will not be advertising the letter beyond these emails. You may feel free to use the statement on your own websites, etc. The letter will be mailed and not delivered in person, unless another organization would like to volunteer to take it to the Embassy.
The petition can be found here: http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/bhattipetition/
Blessings,
Michelle
