The ONE CATHOLIC VOTE! ...... CATHOLIC RISE UP!

White Vote Movement

The election of our new Pope marks a new beginning.
A new journey.
A renewed Church.
The humility of his actions serves as an example
It's about love of family.
It's about serving...
protecting...
...and saving lives.
Our new Pope is a timely inspiration.
Can we adopt Pope Francis' principled humility...
...in the coming elections...
...our respect and love for the family...
...for life...
...should guide us in choosing our nation's leaders?
That our spiritual leaders can humbly remind us...
...to vote for candidates who will stand up for family and for life.
Instead of allowing issues to divide us...
...let the Pope's example unite us!
White Vote... Vote for family. Vote for life.
White is the symbol of purity.
Innocence.
Humility.
And solidarity.
It also symbolizes a new beginning.
A clean slate.
A fresh start.
White Vote... Going back to the start.
White Vote... Protect all life.
Whether it's the life of the poor...
...the sick...
...the aged...
...the hungry...
...the abused...
...the helpless...
...and yes, the unborn.
Let us come together as a nation of Catholics.
And show the world that we are still powerful force for change.
For while a divided vote changes nothing...
...a united vote changes everything.
And makes sure that every one of our votes counts.
let us pray for discernment. But let us vote right.
Let us remember not just the campaign ads.
Let us remember our faith.
Let us vote to protect the family.
And to protect life.
Calling all families. Join the Movement.
White Vote. Vote for family. Vote for life.
