STEPHEN BENNETT |

 |
is a happily married Christian father with a passion to reach out to homosexuals who want to escape the lifestyle. Mr. Bennett is a former homosexual, so he speaks from personal experience and with great empathy to homosexuals. "Mr. Bennett's message is one that the church, politicians and Canadian society needs to hear," said Rev. Emmanuel. "All Christians involved in the battle for marriage and the family will want to hear what Mr. Bennett has to say." For more on Stephen Bennet Ministries, visit: www.sbministries.org. |

CHRIS KEMPLING |

 |
is a BC teacher who is being vigorously persecuted, harassed and intimidated over personal correspondence on homosexuality that has been published in local news media. Kempling's compassionate views raised the ire of the BCCT (the British Columbia College of Teachers), which has suspended him without pay. This is the same organization that dragged Trinity Western University through the court system all the way up to the Supreme Court of Canada several years ago. |
