Dear Marriage Supporter,

Looking back at the past week, I am overwhelmed by the generosity of Americans like you who are willing to stand up in defense of marriage. I can't thank you enough for your generous support. We successfully raised over $100,000 in just 7 days to help fund the appeal of last week's ruling striking down California's Proposition 8.

As of Monday morning, we had raised just over $40,000. But I was confident that we would hit our $100,000 goal because every time we have needed the means to defend marriage, God has provided and our supporters have stepped up.

Your response in the final 48 hours of our Prop 8 drive was simply overwhelming—almost 1,000 of you responded, donating over $60,000 in just 2 days, including someone who generously made a major gift to put us well past our goal!

Thank you.

Your support has helped to ensure that arch-liberal Judge Stephen Reinhardt—one of the nation's most overturned judges—does not have the final word on marriage. His ruling will be appealed to the United States Supreme Court and I'm convinced the Supreme Court will right this wrong and affirm the good judgment of the people of California.

There is a long road yet ahead of us in this litigation—but today we are celebrating!

We are moving forward together, toward an ultimate game-changing victory for marriage and Prop 8.

Thank you again, and God Bless you!
