Black Friday change for Walmart

Perhaps you have heard the uproar over Wal-mart's plans to donate part of their Black Friday proceeds to a h*mos*xual group? Maybe you recieved the online petition from American Family Association . . . . .
I am guessing that the over 400,000 people who signed the petition to not shop at Wal-mart this Friday has gotten their attention (remember last year's "Happy Holidays" bru-ha-ha and their change of heart over the money lost???).
Anyway, Wal-mart has changed its mind. Wal-mart has issued a statement saying it "will no longer make corporate contributions to support or oppose controversial issues unless they directly relate to their ability to serve their customers."
Yippee! Praise the Lord.
AFA is encouraging Christians to send an email thanking Wal-mart for this change.
I am so thankful for the Lord's provisions in so many ways. He continues to make a way for us.

WOW!

That is great. Praise the Lord. Maybe I will start shopping there again. Thanks for the info. And have a Happy Thanksgiving!

That is great. I too had signed the petition and it was starting to hurt me that I couldn't go to WalMart for those days. I always do the after Thanksgiving sales but I was going to give it up. You have to take a stand somewhere.
