Happy Thanksgiving!

Thanksgiving is a wonderful opportunity to reflect upon the past year, gather with family and friends, and give thanks for all that we have. As we consider how truly fortunate we all are, let us not forget to give thanks for our freedoms. Let us all remember how thankful we are for the young men and women who are serving our country and defending freedom all over the globe and in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Why is Thanksgiving a National Holiday?

In 1863, President Abraham Lincoln issued a proclamation shortly after he had committed his life to Christ. This was in the midst of the Civil War and this proclamation eventually led to the establishment of our national Thanksgiving holiday.

Home School Event a Success!

The Tabor campaign invited Mike Farris, Chief Counsel to the Home School Legal Defense Association, to educate parents and local leaders about the advantages and challenges facing the home school movement. The events attracted over 350 supporters of Tabor.

Thank you so much for so much support!

Nathan Defends Traditional Marriage, Outs  Former President Ford on Leftist Position

Nathan stated earlier this month that he thought a recent interview by The Detroit News of former President Gerald Ford demonstrated how some in the Republican Party are undermining traditional GOP moral stances.

Tabor stated, “Our party cannot afford to abandon the principles for which we have stood for so long. When I made my choice of parties, I understood the GOP to be a party that would stand up for the traditional American family, not pander to Hollywood.”

Ironically, a little over a week after the Tabor campaign sent this statement out, the Supreme Court of Massachusetts ruled that same-sex couples have a legal right to marry. 

Obviously, the fight for family values must continue and without hesitation.

Falwell Endorsement Brings National Support

With Dr. Jerry Falwell's endorsement of Nathan, we have received so many emails and letters of encouragement that it is truly humbling. With such a response, we only continue to build momentum for the campaign.

The endorsement was even carried in the Biblical Recorder. (Read the article by clicking here.) 

Please help us continue to grow our campaign by sharing this information and email with friends and family!

On November 6th, Nathan was featured in an article in "The Hill", a newspaper for and about the U.S. Congress.  

The article was entitled: "House Hopeful: Mr. Tabor Goes to Washington" highlighted a recent trip to Washington D.C. by Tabor and several campaign workers. It noted that Nathan had the endorsement of several congressmen and that the day consisted of meetings with House members, donors and representatives from an assortment of interest groups and think tanks.

Over 75 Pastors on Pastoral Steering Committee

With over 75 pastors joining the Tabor for Congress Pastoral Steering Committee, the campaign is reaching local spiritual leaders.

Nathan stressed to a group recently just how important he felt this was to the campaign and to him as an individual. "I need prayers from everyone and particularly pastors. If we are to stay focused on the right issues and how best to serve the people of the 5th district, then we must ask for prayers for our leaders."
