    Crawford Peace House: Dr. Joseph Lowery To Join Cindy Sheehan On Easter At Camp Casey In Texas

    For Immediate Release

    CRAWFORD, Texas/EWORLDWIRE/April 7, 2006 --- Reverend Dr. Joseph E. Lowery will deliver the Easter Sunday service at Camp Casey outside President Bush's Crawford ranch to a diverse group of attendees, including veterans, consumer, peace and civil rights advocates. Following the Easter morning worship, Dr. Lowery will officiate the third anniversary celebration of the Crawford Peace House on April 16, 2006, 1 p.m. in the garden.

    The anniversary prayer service will close several days of activities featuring Dr. Lowery as the keynote speaker, beginning Thursday of Easter Week in Crawford. The Dr. Lowery is co-founder with Martin Luther King, Jr. of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC) and served as president and chief executive officer from 1977 to January 15, 1998. Most recently, the Dr. Lowery gave the eulogy at the memorial service for Coretta Scott King.

    The final leg of the 120 mile, March to Redeem the Soul of America, which began on April 1, at Exxon Mobil headquarters in Irving, will conclude on Good Friday with a Stations of the Cross walk beginning at the Crawford Peace House to the security checkpoint near the Bush Ranch. The walk finalizes at Camp Casey where peace mom, Cindy Sheehan will again pitch her tent at Camp Casey near the vacation retreat of President Bush. Sheehan electrified the world last August when she called for an end to the Iraq war and the return of U.S. troops.

    Reverend Peter Johnson, one of the organizers of the march said, "There is something wrong with our nations’ soul when rich cities such as Dallas, home to large multinational corporations like Exxon Mobil register record profits while people still live under bridges. Christ told us to feed the hungry, house the homeless and clothe the naked. That’s why we must march to the Western White House during resurrection week and redeem the soul of America.”

    Services and activties will be held at 9142 East 5th Street, (Highway 185) Crawford, Texas. All are invited. For more information visit the Web site www.crawfordpeacehouse.org or call 254-486-0099.
