there's a liquor store right next to one of the local colleges, that has a big display of clear plastic, like a greenhouse, that nightly has at least 2, sometimes more, young women in it to draw attention to the liquor store, called Beer and all. It looks like a fancy prostitution brothel or something. Please pray for this ugly business. I am going to write a letter of complaint, to let them know they are encouraging the destruction of families promoting sexual promiscuity, moral degradation. Please pray for me also in the letter to write. Also maybe prayers more in the community will speak out against this evil. They are also real close to the abortion clinic that has usual protesters. I am surprised this new display is lasting so long.thank you for prayers.

I agree with Greg - go for it! You have my prayers. BE a light in your part of the world. BE salt. "Evil prospers when good people do nothing."

Rocklife,Don't bother complaining to the store itself. They know how you feel already, as they had to anticipate community members taking offense. Go directly to your city council zoning board or other appropriate authority and complain there. They have the power to change whatever regulations need changing. Get a petition going and get as many signatures as you can.Good Luck!Bub

My wife and I lived in a community that allowed a strip joint to open right in the heart of town. Every time we drove past the place we prayed that it would be shut down. We prayed for almost a year. The place is now shut down, Praise God! It tried to open under a new name, but shut down again in a very short time. We can do awesome things and accomplish much when we get on our knees. Keep praying and do whatever God leads you to do, He will take care of it!!! :-D

You can learn what not to do in this story. ( I don't know if it actually happened or not)A liquor store opened up right next to a church. For 3 weeks the church had a prayer meeting once a week asking the Lord to shut it down however he seemed fit. After 3 weeks of prayer the store burned down. No one was hurt but the liquor store burned to the ground. The next week the church met together for their prayer meeting and the pastor asked, "Does anyone know how the store burned down?" I little old woman in the back said, "sometimes you have to put legs on your prayers..."
