85 Year-Old Grandmother – Banned From Hanging An Angel on Her Christmas Tree
AFA:
"The Plant City Living Center has told Mrs. Arnold, an 85-year-old grandmother in Florida, that federal law prohibits her from displaying any religious words or items associated with Christmas in the common area of her apartment building. "According to the Center, The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) issued a directive banning "any religious symbols or religious words associated with Christmas." Under the guidelines issued by HUD, the elderly grandmother cannot place a small Christmas tree outside her door (because that area is a "commons area") if it contains any religious symbols or religious words, even an angel!
"If the residents want to have a Christmas party in their Community room, they cannot call it a Christmas party. The Center says HUD directs residents not to use the word "Christmas" but to use the word "Holiday."
"A Sunday School class from a church near Mrs. Arnold's apartment comes every year to host a Hanging of the Greens and Christmas Party for all the residents. She said the highlight of their Christmas Party comes at the very end of The Hanging of the Greens when someone places the angel on top of their Christmas tree. Their tradition is now banned by the federal government.
"The federal government is becoming increasingly active in banning Christianity from the public square. Earlier, the National Park Service removed the wording "Laus Deo" (Latin for "Praise be to God") from a replica of the cap of the Washington Monument in Washington, D.C. and the Veterans Administration banned the script of the flag-folding ceremony mentioning "Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob," and "Father, Son and Holy Ghost" at over 100 national cemeteries."

| Is living the Sabbath really the key to adverting the tide of evil that is threatening our future? Join A Friend of Medjugorje as he discusses this question, that has shocked many in what he wrote in Look What Happened While You Were Sleeping. That all the failures we are experiencing are related to our own Christian walk. |
Tuesday November 13, 2007 |
| Our Lady has come to teach us about what freedom is. It is a characteristic of God and He is uncompromising in allowing man to use his free will to choose for himself life or death. Without realizing it, mankind is choosing a future of death through agendas that are manifesting themselves in every area of life. Michael Shaw, of Freedom Advocates, will join A Friend of Medjugorje in helping to unveil what these agendas encompass and why every individual who walks with Our Lady must educate themselves to understand more fully the signs of the times. |

| The Holy Father, Pope John Paul II, said that when religious orders find themselves in crisis, they should return back to their beginning, back to their founding. What is good for religious orders is certainly good for a nation that was founded upon the principles of Jesus Christ. Judge Roy Moore, known as the Ten Commandments Judge for his stand on keeping them in his courtroom, and also founder of Foundation of Moral Law, Inc. , will be our special guest in our studio as he discusses with A Friend of Medjugorje the Declaration of Independence, and the original intent behind the decisions made by America's founding fathers. What does this have to do with Our Lady? Everything the message is about. It was Our Lady who said to pray that the dreams of your fathers be realized. Wednesday's discussion is on the dreams of the founding father's of the United States of America. You won't want to miss it. |

| Though the media is not reporting it, overwhelming scientific information that refutes the claims that global warming is a threat to the future of the earth is surfacing through many sources. Our Lady said on September 25, 1986, "…I am calling you, so that by your prayer and your life you help…uncover the deception that satan makes use of…" Hear from a respected scientist, our special guest live, Arthur Robinson , of the Oregon Institute of Science and Medicine, as he uncovers the deception being used by global warming alarmists. A Friend of Medjugorje will speak on how global warming is being used to create an atmosphere of fear and control in our coming age as well as how it will be used to persecute the church |

| The freedoms that we have enjoyed since the founding of our nation are rapidly diminishing before our eyes. Our Lady has come to warn us of these dangers. Judith McGeary, with Liberty Ark Coalition, will be our special guest live, joining A Friend of Medjugorje on Friday to discuss how United States citizens are being set up to be controlled in the future through a system that is being forced upon this nation. The controls put upon man by this system will greatly harm the ability for you to direct your life, for you to live according to the Church and Holy Scriptures and even will prevent your ability to feed yourself. Sounds amazing. It's well underway in being instituted. It is a system among many others, which are manipulating the masses to accept greater and greater controls over them. The system of NAIS, the National Animal Identification System, is in great contradiction to the spirit of where Our Lady is leading Her children. You will become aware of what many do not understand or see as "signs of the time" in our midst. |
