| Go to the GAP, fill a shopping bag, go to the counter and say, “Will you be acknowledging Christmas.” When you hear, “NO.” Lay your bag on the counter and walk away as you say…”Too bad…MERRY CHRISTMAS.” DO NOT BUY!
One company says ‘Yes’ to Christmas, and one says ‘No’
September 22, 2009 Dear Lee, A few years ago American Family Association noticed a trend among major corporations (which profit from Christmas sales) not wanting to recognize Christmas. Since that time we have been making the public aware of these companies while applauding those companies which are not making the ”politically correct” decision to censor the word “Christmas.” We are pleased to see the Sears company is already offering a “Christmas Club” on its website. You may recall, AFA asked our supporters to contact Sears three years ago when it too was avoiding the word and Sears responding positively. Thank Sears the next time you visit one of their stores. Well known retailer The Gap, on the other hand, has clearly indicated it WILL NOT use the term “Christmas” in any of its promotional advertising again this year. AFA has repeatedly contacted The Gap and spokesmen say they “don’t want to offend anyone” by using the word Christmas. The Gap also owns Old Navy and Banana Republic.
Here’s how you can take a stand for Christmas. AFA is making available an attractive button and sticker that carry this thought-provoking, Gospel-focused message: “God’s Gift: Merry Christmas.” Purchase enough buttons for each member of your church and enough glossy stickers for each family to have one to go on their automobiles. Urge your fellow members to wear their buttons and display the glossy stickers during the entire Christmas season.
Order your pack of 10 buttons today, or, sponsor your entire church by choosing a Large or Small Church Packet or the NEW Display Box of 250 buttons. And, we will include FREE SHIPPING on all Christmas buttons and stickers. |
