Dear Friends,

With three weeks until the election, Catholic Democrats is having a nationwide impact in making the Catholic case for Senators Barack Obama and Joe Biden. Now we are asking you to hold a Catholic Values Debate Watching Party for the final presidential debate, this Wednesday, October 15th.

Holding a Catholic Values Debate Watching Party is easy - just invite your Catholic friends and family members over one hour before the debate begins at 9:00pm EDT, at Hofstra University. Catholic Democrats has put together a simple agenda for you to follow, which is available at our Web site.

The debate house parties will bring Catholic Democrats together in small groups of 4 to 10 to share their faith and their political aspirations in the context of the final presidential debate. In addition to deepening relationships and strengthening commitments to help put the Obama-Biden Campaign over the top, these parties will continue to build the Catholic Democrats for the long-term.

If you hold a Catholic Values Debate Watching Party, please let us know. We want to share your efforts within Catholic Democrats, and would also like to help you publicize your effort to the local media. Hosting a party at your home will help us publicize the support of Catholics for the Obama-Biden ticket and Catholic Democrats across the country.

Thanks again for everything you're doing to make sure we have a White House that once again represents the best of our Catholic values.
