[Ftffacilitationteam] FTF Facilitation meeting in March

[Josephine Kamel]

Dear Ana, Rosa, and Dear FTF friends,
 
Thank you for your diligent efforts.  I will be available for the conference call.  In addition, I can spare a weak's time for the event in NY and will leave immediately after the FTF meeting.  Our tribunal in Cairo was rescheduled for March 14, 2008.
 
Consequently, need to renew my Visa to the US, therefore, I will need a letter of invitation ASAP because the process of issuing the US Visa became so long here.
 
Thank you in advance for your anticipated assistance.
 
Love and Peace
