2011 Christian Heritage Week Proclamation (see prev years below)
The Peace Corps traces its roots and mission to 1960, when then-Sen. John F.
Kennedy challenged
students at the University of Michigan
to serve their country in the cause
of peace by living and working in developing countries. From that inspiration
grew a federal government
agency devoted to world peace and friendship.
Ask not what your country can do for you. Ask what you can do for your country.
Luk 10:29 But he, willing to
justify himself, said unto Jesus, And who is my neighbour?

A copy of the speech is required at check-in. Scoring places more emphasis on content than on theatrics. Props are allowed if portable and reasonable (no set up time).
