Your actions make difference. School backs off eviction

When you take the time to get involved, changes happen.
August 10, 2012

Dear Friend,

Two encouraging things happened last week that show me the AFA Action Alert is a valuable tool for people who want to engage our culture.

Chick-fil-A
I don't think anyone would have guessed just how successful the Chick-fil-A Appreciation Day was going to be. All across America, millions of citizens stood up for traditional marriage by supporting a company's owner who believes in Biblical marriage as between one man and one woman.

By now, you've probably seen the pictures of long lines of friendly, patient customers at Chick-fil-A restaurants. It was exciting to hear the stories of people willing to wait more than an hour to get their order. And some people did it for breakfast, lunch and dinner!

In fact, some stores reported sales as much as three times larger than their biggest day previously. Wow! It's good to know people are still willing to take action in making their voices heard.

Miami-Dade County Schools and Pastor Rick Hakimian
Last week, we asked you to contact Miami-Dade County Schools because it was attempting to evict Pastor Rick Hakimian and his church because Pastor Rick was preaching God's word, calling homosexuality a sin.

Superintendent Alberto Carvalho was threatening to break a lease with the church over what amounted to religious discrimination and violation of Pastor Rick's free speech rights.

After receiving over 200,000 emails from supporters of the AFA Action Alert, Superintendent Carvalho, under legal advice, issued a memo stating that he was ending his crusade to violate Pastor Rick's rights. The church will be able to continue to meet on Sundays on school property.
