I just signed it, and sent it around to just about every body on my email address book...Please do the same! What our brethren are going through there is terrible and is generally not known to most Americans, and not widely reported by the media.

I noticed that the petition also enables you to post it to your Facebook accounts for those who have one..

petition link [petitions.whitehouse.gov]

They really need many, many more signatures by the Epiphany.

Bump....

This petition needs a lot more attention if it ever hopes to make it to 25,000 signatures by January 6...

As Christians, no matter our faith tradition or allegiance, we ALL have an obligation to be a voice for our brothers and sisters in Christ who are under persecution.

Thanks for your interest in We the People, a new tool on WhiteHouse.gov that allows all Americans to ask the Obama Administration to take action on a range of important issues facing our country.

The petition you are trying to access has expired, because it failed to meet the signature threshold.

How sad.

So this is where helping those in need has come to... I just wonder where we went wrong with this. I did my part, signed the petition, placed the petition link to my Facebook page, and then this. How are we going to wake up everyone in such a secular society in terms of what's really happening? *Sigh*...

Just noticed this. Tried to sign the petition but the site says it has expired because it did not meet the numbers threshhold in time.
