Join in ‘Hobby Lobby Day’ – March 29th

I have devoted several past blog postings (2 Dec, 13 Nov, 6 Nov, 25 Sep, 5 Aug, 2 Aug) in 2013 to the plight of Hobby Lobby Stores  whose case appeared (yesterday – 25 Mar) before the U.S. Supreme Court.  The case, filed as Sebelius vs. Hobby Lobby, is about defending the right of private corporate owners to conduct their business in accordance with their faith and conscience.  It is all about the freedom of religious liberty verses Obamacare’s contraceptive mandate to provide employer funding for abortion-inducing drugs … or pay exorbitant fines. 
 
While you cannot testify in the courtroom, you can make known your sentiments in support of Hobby Lobby’s 1st Amendment rights by joining thousands upon thousands of just persons around the country participating in ‘Hobby Lobby Day’ this Saturday March 29th.  Do you remember what happened when the call went out to support Chick-fil-A on a particular day … to show support for their stance on traditional marriage (one man – one woman)?  It was their best single day of business in history!
 
Beyond their pro-life stance, Hobby Lobby is strong in other conservative positions, including: traditional marriage, 2nd Amendment right to bear arms, and in Godly dominion over the environment.
 
Consider shopping with a multitude of other conservatives across the U.S. on March 29th at your nearby Hobby Lobby. Take a stand for religious freedom.  Declare in numbers that no family business should have to compromise their religious convictions. Make known that we don’t surrender our 1st Amendment rights when we step into the market place.
