Dear Friends of Musical Missions of Peace, Our network of support is growing, even in spite of the current economic downturns. Thank you!

We are sending monthly salaries for Iraqi refugee musicians to teach Iraqi refugee children traditional Iraqi music in Damascus. Traditional Iraqi music carries centuries of beautiful traditions which help stabilize Iraqi consciousness in the only way which really works: honoring who they already are!

We are also helping support Peoples Musical Ambassadors work in Kurdistan and Indonesia. See our http://www.musicalmissionsofpeace.org website for more details.

Cameron is currently on the road through New Mexico and Arizona to Los Angeles, San Francisco and points in between driving his veggie oil diesel van.

Musical events for Jan 25 and Feb 22nd are set up but more importantly, please make an appointment to Have Tea or Coffee or Lunch or Dinner with Cameron to discuss how Circles of Friends can be set up in your communities to help support Musical Missions of Peace. We are one of the few 501c3 non-governmental organizations which supports indigenous values rather than trying to change them! Show the indigenous peoples of the world that we love them just the way they are and that, in fact, we know that we have some important things to learn from them!

To contact Cameron and arrange a get-together or help set up a meeting with one of your friends, call him at 303-898-6125 (cell) or send an email to cameron@rmi.net

It's easy. You'd be surprised to find out how recent efforts made by Boulder, Colorado Circle of Friends members are helping lay the groundwork for future fundraising efforts!

Cameron will be in the LA area from Jan 21, 2009 until Jan 28 Cameron will be in the SF area from Jan 30 until Feb 10 Cameron will be back in the LA area from Feb 11 until Feb 25

These dates are approximate and flexible. Give him a call or send an email! Get in on the action.
