''The church's teachings and position on this moral issue are unequivocal. Marriage between a man and a woman is ordained of God and the formation of families is central to the Creator's plan for His children. We ask that you do all you can to support the proposed constitutional amendment by donating of your means and time to ensure that marriage in California is legally defined as being between a man and a woman. Our best efforts are required to preserve the sacred institution of marriage.''
From a letter from Latter Day Saints leaders that was to be read in Mormon churches across California on Sunday. The organization is said to have run a similar fundraising campaign in 2000 supporting Proposition 22 that eventually led to the initial ban on gay marriages in the state. (Federal News Radio)
