I received an e-mail from Focus On The Family today asking me to sign a petition stating that “I Stand For Christmas!”  It will be sent to some major retailers who have refused to acknowledge Christmas in their stores, catalogs, advertisements, et cetera.  Focus On The Family hopes to have 100,000 signatures by tomorrow night and the total was at 89,000 when I signed. 

So, I encourage you to visit their website (www.focusonthefamily.com) and click on the “I Stand For Christmas” icon.  Please consider alerting others with e-mail access to do the same. 

I also encourage you to check out the retailers who have, thus far, refused to cooperate with the requests made by Focus On The Family.  You may want to consider whether to give these stores your business during this Christmas season since they don’t acknowledge Christmas. 

Merry Christmas!
