INSPIRATION

A message from a friend:
Today Michael Cole Smith and Jamil Smith Cole spoke at The State Capital in St. Paul MN in support of Marriage Equality on behalf of OUTFRONT Minnesota.

Their [OUTFRONT MN] mission is "to make our state a place where GLBT Minnesotans have the freedom, power, and confidence to make the best choices for their own lives."

Today was about equality, acceptance and tolerance of all people and their right to make legal decisions that affect individuals and their families. We heard from people that are directly affected by this movement as well as clergymen and clergywomen who support marraige of ALL people.

I was truly inspired by all the stories that I heard today and I am very thankful that I was present in that room.

Michael and Jamil's story represents thousands of other individuals.

They hope that their journey can inspire other gay couples to have something to look forward to.... Marriage Equality in the state of Minnesota and across the country!

For more information about OUTFRONT MN and their mission, visit the official website at http://www.outfront.org/.

Peace and Blessings!!
