Customers Say

Celebrating holidays unique to our American Christian history throughout the 12 month year is a tradition shared with every culture and civilization according to their own unique history. Every people group from earliest times have marked events in their history with memorializing activities. They are teaching tools to pass onto subsequent generations the who, what, when, where, how, and why of their people. But even as we, collectively and commercially, celebrate Thanksgiving, Christmas, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Columbus Day, Reformation Day, and more, how do we mark its historic significance to who we are as an individual, as an American citizen, and as a Christian beyond feasting and door-buster sales?
