New Agenda 21 DVD Complete!

insidejbs — Mon, 18 Jun 2012 16:29:55 +0000

The John Birch Society has now released a new DVD, “Agenda 21: How Will it Affect You?” This DVD will explore the agenda environmentalists have in store for you and your family.

This 20 minute DVD has received nothing but great reviews and offers a great introduction to Agenda 21 using the words and actions of those who are promoting this agenda.

Imagine if the government intentionally began rationing the use of water, electricity, natural gas and gasoline. And now imagine that these policies came from your local government’s committee or department of “sustainability.”

This DVD is an excellent tool to use to educate new audiences and to generate interest in the “Choose Freedom, Stop Agenda 21” action project.

“Agenda 21: How Will It Affect You?” is available for viewers on YouTube and is available for purchase in the JBS store!

Off to Boston we go!

Click to view slideshow.Two JBS videographers, Nathan Sheppard and Jason Vincent, were sent to Plymouth and Boston, Massachusetts to film the Christian Heritage Academy seniors from Oklahoma City, Oklahoma on their tour of Boston and Plymouth and a number of the historical sites in the area. Nathan and Jason spent eight days filming the students and their journey around Boston and Plymouth.

They toured monuments, museums, boats, the Boston Pops, breaching whales and were even able to take in a game at the historic Fenway Park. Although they were able to see many amazing sites, Nathan says the most amazing part was working with the students. They took time to offer to help carry equipment, open doors and elevators and most importantly were extremely cooperative.

The trip was an overall success! They got over 15 hours of footage of true American history, learned a lot about our country’s history and saw a ton of fantastic sites.

Coming SOON….

Another Successful Coucil Dinner!

The JBS Spring 2012 Council Dinner was held in Salt Lake City this past Saturday. It gave members and supporters the opportunity to attend educational seminars during the day and listen to keynote speakers during the dinner.

For the afternoon sessions, JBS President John McManus gave an update to his popular Dollars & $ense presentation. Utah State Representative Christopher Herrod offered a truthful look at immigration. JBS Council Member Darr Moon presented an insight into the federal government’s war on our natural resources. The New American (TNA) Contributor Joe Wolverton discussed the details of the National Defense Authorization Act, and JBS National Director of Field Activities Jim Fitzgerald gave an in-depth look at why its important to support your local police.

At the evening Council Dinner, American Policy Center President Tom DeWeese gave a rousing speech on the successes of anti-Agenda 21 efforts across the country, which the JBS is an integral partner. JBS CEO Arthur Thompson paralleled winning an election with successful organizing in his speech.

JBS COO Clark Curry joined the Executive Committee of the JBS Council. He was then voted Chairman of the Committee. We thank former Chairman Art Crino for his many wonderful years of active leadership on the Committee. Mr. Crino will still remain on the Council.

JBS welcomed two new members to the Council, Darr Moon and Don Griffin.

If you missed this Council Dinner, join us in Houston, Texas for the fall Council Dinner on October 20.

We would like to thank everyone who participated and to all those who support JBS!
