Fear Not Indirect Mail can now be delivered by volunteers, and our first Indirect Mail agent will be taking some of the recent
messages to Thailand and Laos in November 2011.
Interested in becoming an Indirect Mail agent? Find out more and sign up here.
Fear Not Indirect Mail takes participants' handwritten anti-fear messages, turns them into magnets,
and places the magnets on street signs, mailboxes, bus stops, etc., for someone else to discover.
You can participate by writing "Have no fear" on a postcard or other piece of paper
and mailing it to:
Fear Not Indirect Mail
239 Page Street
San Francisco, CA 94102
You can participate as many times as you'd like, as long as each message looks different. All languages
are welcome.

I have been working on my own anti-fear project in the form of satire. When I saw the magnet, I knew it was meant for me and that if I took it, I would have to give back by spreading more anti-fear art across, about, and throughout the city of SF.

I was in great fear the day I found the magnet, was at the notary trying to get birth certificate for state ID. Been in prison and homeless nine years.

I'm trying to do the right things for the right reason, waiting & looking for his message to my next journey. I would like to work in the outreach field, my life's experience & testimony may bring others to my lord. Please pray for me. I know god will give me what's needed. I need the strength & wisdom to know where to go from here. Thank you for carrying the message.
