The Rescue: Are You Abducting Yourself?

Who: Pete Wentz, Joel Madden, Kristen Bell, Kirsten Dunst and THOUSANDS of other people. Maybe you?

What: Participants are to ‘abduct themselves for the abducted.’  Tens of thousands of people will travel by foot to a location in each city that will become their “LRA base,” where they will refuse to leave until a politician, mogul or local celebrity ‘RESCUES’ them by making a public statement on behalf of the child soldiers.

Where: Globally, y'all. To find out if your city is participating, go to therescue.invisiblechildren.com, select your country, then your state, and see if your city is there.

When: Saturday, April 25th, 2009

Why: To unite as an international community to deliver the innocent from Joseph Kony’s reign and ensure he is brought to justice. Thousands will gather to symbolically abduct themselves to free the abducted.

I wish I could... I live at least 5+ hrs away from any city participating. :(
So instead I'm posting on all my blogs about invisible children and telling family, friends, and strangers about it.
I would donate, but I'm totally broke.

I really want to this so bad, but I have a band trip for the whole week at san antonio. :( I'll be away from houston so I won't be able to abduct myself.

I would go, but I'm already going to this big Christian event this weekend. But while I'm there, my friend and I will be fasting and praying for the children.

btw, Aaron from UnderOATH/The Almost said in a bulletin on myspace that he and his wife will be at the Orlando, FL event.
I'll be at the Pittsburgh event. I just found out that I can make it (I was afraid I had a schedule conflict)!
