Contrary to reports, not all Hobby Lobby stores are remaining open during the pandemic.

Yesterday, social media outrage was at its peak when it was reported that the CEO of Hobby Lobby planned on keeping stores open during the COVID-19 outbreak.

The announcement was made public on March 20th in a memo directed to employees, which you can read below.

In short, CEO David Green wrote, "While we do not know for certain what the future holds, or how long this disruption will last, we can all rest in knowing that God is in control."
