Do we still have the religious freedom to publicly acknowledge God in America?

With the ferocious attacks against the Pledge, our National Motto and our religious symbols being stripped from the public square, by groups like the ACLU, the time has come for our parties to make a declaration as to where they stand on religious liberty and our right to publicly acknowledge God.

This election year is the perfect time to motivate the major political parties in our nation to definitively address this issue.

We are asking both the Republican and Democratic parties to make the Public Acknowledgement of God part of their official 2004 Party Platform.

This would not only secure our rights to publicly acknowledge God, but give the President the support he needs to counter elements in his own party that fear being "too religious."

+ + 100,000 Citizen Petitions Needed

Over the next 90 days, Faith and Action, is urging citizens from across the nation to take immediate action with us by signing our petition to "Publicly Acknowledge God":

Sign Here

Once we reach our delivery goal, we will present these petitions directly to each of the parties and the key Presidential nominees!

This is a critical issue whose time has come. Now it's up to the freedom loving citizens of our nation to pick up the banner for religious freedom and impress on our elected leadership to let us know where they officially stand.

+ + + Grassroots Support is Critical!

Unless we can stir the nation, we can expect attacks against our religious freedom to continue. However, if we can take this message to the masses, we can help secure our right to publicly acknowledge God for our children's children and beyond.

Please take a stand with the thousands of Americans who have already signed this petition:

Sign Here

Thanks for taking immediate action.

Rev. Rob Schenck Your Missionary to our nation's leaders. Faith & Action

P.S. Remember, this is a grassroots effort whose success depends wholly upon you. After signing this petition, please alert your friends, family, co-workers, and church leaders, letting them know that Faith and Action is urging the Political Parties of our nation address our rights to publicly acknowledge God.

Thanks again for your help.

Nationwide Church (every city/town) bells ringing aloud to call Christians to worship 5+ times every day!
