In an amazing stroke of coincidence, the Wear White movement has scheduled their annual colour-donning event on June 4, the same day as Pink Dot, the annual LGBT-friendly event.

This year's campaign, known as We.Wear.White, was announced on the Facebook page of LoveSingapore, a Christian unity movement founded in 1995 by Faith Community Baptist Church pastor and magician, Lawrence Khong.

Here's their announcement:

In case you cannot view the post, here's what it says:

We.Wear.White | Saturday, June 4 | Sunday, June 5

Why Wear White? Because it is a pro-Family, pro-Government, pro-Singapore message!

1. It is a message to our Government that we fully support its pro-Family policies. We reinforce the important role of Family in nation-building. Guó Jiā. Guó means country. Jiā means family. The Family is the basic building block of society. As the Family goes, so goes society, so goes the nation. We pledge to work with our government to build a Family of Nation-Builders and a Nation of Family-Builders.

2. It is a message to the Church that we must arise and move as one on our convictions regarding personal purity and public morality, Marriage and Family. Howard Hendricks said: “A belief is something you will argue about. A conviction is something you will die for.”

3. It is a message to the Press and Society at large that the Church’s stance on heterosexual Marriage and the Natural Family is in keeping with the core value of Singapore's conservative majority. We signal to the younger generation our commitment to preserve the Pioneer Generation’s legacy of Family according to “the mainstream views and values of Singapore society, where the social norm consists of the married heterosexual family unit.”

4. It is a message to LGBT activists that there is a conservative majority in Singapore who will push back and will not allow them to promote their homosexual lifestyle and liberal ideologies that openly and outrightly contradict our laws, our government’s stated policies, our national core values, and the conservative majority’s views on public morality, Marriage and Family.

Remember, this is not a protest. This is a message. An important message representing the conservative majority of Singapore.

We welcome all Singaporeans who support pro-Natural Family values—regardless of race, language or religion.

Will you lead by example?

“I will give them singleness of heart and action, so that they will always fear me and that all will then go well for them and for their children after them.” (Jeremiah 32:39)

Together We Stand:

Lawrence Khong

Chairman, LoveSingapore

And here's the tl;dr version of it:

This movement was started to achieve 4 things:

1. To show support for Singapore's pro-family policies.

2. To remind Christians and churchgoers to remain firm in their beliefs on purity, morality, marriage and family.

3. To stress that the socially-accepted norm of a family unit continues to be a married and heterosexual one.

4. To send their message that the LGBT lifestyle and ideology goes against the law, government policies and Singapore's national core values.

It is not yet known if Wear White, the other faith-based Facebook group responsible for previous years' Wear White movements will carry out a similar call to action.

Pink Dot will be held on June 4 at 3 pm, and will feature celebrities such as Shigga Shay, Anita Kapoor and Liu Ling Ling.
