San
Antonio Fighting Back, Inc. is joining forces with Churches, Community
Leaders, Law Enforcement and Social Service Agencies for a “NO MORE”
Non-Violence Campaign.
The
Campaign was unveiled at the
New
Genesis
Christian
Fellowship
Church
during a life celebration and candlelight vigil service for Rayshawn
Yvette Slack, a 20 year old pregnant mother who was killed by a stray
bullet in a drive-by shooting on July 18, 2007.
Over
a dozen church leaders and community members joined in the ceremony to
take a stand against the violence. District Two Councilwoman, Sheila
McNeil said, “I am heart broken. This is not just a family
tragedy, it is a community tragedy…I stand with you to stop the violence
in our community.”
The
campaign is an opportunity for the community to come together, listen,
learn and most important, heal from the recent violence and senseless lost
of lives in our community.

MORE” SILENCE!

MORE” VIOLENCE!

MORE!”
