🌹 Happy Birthday, Mama Mary!
Feast of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary - September 8
Today, the Church joyfully celebrates the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary the birth of the woman chosen by God to become the Mother of our Lord Jesus Christ.
🌅 St. Andrew of Crete beautifully described Mary as the “dawn of our salvation.” Her birth marks the beginning of a new chapter in God’s plan of salvation, leading toward the coming of Christ, our Savior.
✝️ Through Mary, God prepared the way for the Incarnation. She would freely give her yes to God and become the Mother of Jesus, always pointing beyond herself toward her Son.
🙏 Today, we thank God for the gift of Mary for her faithful yes, her humility, her maternal care, and her intercession for the Church.
❤️ Happy Birthday, Mama Mary!
May we learn from your faith to say yes to God, to remain humble in His presence, and to lead others ever closer to Jesus Christ.
🌹 Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us.
🌹 Lead us always closer to Jesus.
“The dawn of our salvation.” — St. Andrew of Crete

Founder's Rationale: Founder and CEO David Green stated that selling Halloween items conflicted with his Christian faith and values, describing the holiday as a "celebration of death". [1, 2]
Financial Impact: The company sacrificed more than $22 million in yearly merchandise sales. Green noted that while the choice costs money in the short term, he prioritizes obedience to his faith over profit. [1, 2]
What You Will Find Instead: Hobby Lobby no longer stocks spooky or explicitly Halloween-themed decor. Instead, the stores transition directly from general autumn and harvest items (such as pumpkins and faux leaves) into Thanksgiving and Christmas merchandise. [1, 2, 3, 4]
