The Humane Society of the United State has launched a 35-stop national tour at clubs and Christian universities aimed at raising awareness of animal treatment. The “All Creatures” tour features the band The Myriad, honored by MTV as its 2008 Breakout Artist of the Year. The Myriad guitarist Steven Tracy believes it’s important to build awareness among Christians about animal welfare. “It’s something that I’ve felt strongly about for a while, and I think it’s an important issue for this generation,” he said. The faith outreach program of The Humane Society of the United States seeks to engage people and institutions of faith, with animal protection issues on the premise that religious values call upon us to act in a kind and merciful way towards all creatures.
