Subject: A Joyous Holiday Season

On behalf of the Board of Directors, staff and thousands of families
worldwide that comprise the Gay and Lesbian Parents Coalition International,
we extend our wish for a holiday season filled with the laughter of
children, the love of family, and the knowledge that the world is
acknowledging the love of same-sex couples.  

Even in the midst of custody fights, AIDS, the terrible two's as well as the
"awkward years", we all have much for which to be thankful.  GLPCI knows
that our quest for equal rights as lesbians and gay men will give all of us
reasons to be thankful in 1997 and the years to come.
