Join Us In Celebrating America's Christian Heritage

Dear Friends in Christ and Believers in our inalienable rights given to us by our Creator:

This is an invitation to all to the opening day ceremony for the historic Third Annual Springfield (Illinois) Nativity Scene on Tuesday, November 30th, 2010 from 12 Noon until 1 P.M. in the Illinois state Capitol Rotunda building.

If you plan to attend, please come early, as we are expecting an even larger crowd than last year who wish to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ and take part in exercising our Constitutional right to hold the event in the public square. Contrary to political correctness, Americans still have the right under the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution to express our personal faith in a public forum.

There will be plenty of room for all and I promise you the event will be something memorable.

My thanks go out to those of you who have already contributed to the Springfield Nativity Scene Committee (SNSC). For those who would like to help support the SNSC, contributions of any amount will be deeply appreciated. However, donations to the SNSC are not tax-deductible. To make a contribution to the SNSC, please make your check or money order payable to the “Springfield Nativity Scene Committee” and mail it to: Daniel Zanoza, Chairman, Springfield Nativity Scene Committee, 904 21st St., # 71, Lincoln, IL 62656.

For more information about the event or becoming a co-sponsor, e-mail questions to: springfieldnativityscene@xmail99.com

Please limber up your singing voices because the combined choirs from St. Alexander's Catholic Church of Villa Park will fill the state capitol Rotunda Building with Christmas carols celebrating Christ's birth and we invite everyone to sing along.

The Springfield Nativity Scene is the only such display to stand in any state capitol building in any state across the entrie United States.

God bless,

Dan Zanoza, Chairman, Springfield Nativity Scene Committee

....to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ and take part in exercising our Constitutional right.......

Thank God for Christians who are willing to take part in this outdoor display of respect and solidarity for our belief in the birth of Jesus Christ. It's past time for Christians to come out and stand together for our beliefs. Homeland Security thinks we're a bunch of extremists. Government has a favorite religion these days and it is not Christianity or Jewish.
