This is my first post, I've no idea if it's in the right place or if I've commited any massive faux pas, sorry, but if yoy read on you'll see why I want this post up.
OK, so we get am email telling us that PAIS is doing a Friday lunchtime MAD club. They've done an assembly already with the kids to tell them about Making-a-Difference club where they'll get to learn about community values and do stuff to help the community.
My initial reaction is, who are these people? so I do some research. I find this: paismovement.com (I'm on my phone and don't know how to make a proper link sorry).
The email attachment says they are a Christian group linked to a local Baptist Church.
I find out that amongst other things they believe in Creationism and, I quote, "missionaries making missionaries". (I've already made the smutty joke about that so you don't need to).
Further investigation found, well, very little else actually, at least nothing negative and no forums posts anywhere like this one. My friend was up in arms and really started digging and has found they have links to strongly evangelical churches with American money.
We have raised concerns with the school etc etc, but basically I'd like to know if anyone here knows anything about them? Are they doing stuff in your kid's school, do you kniw anything about them. Will they shut this post down as it may get negative?
Anything appreciated, cheers.
