Jim Clifton, CEO of the Gallup organization, congratulated Val Halamandaris and NAHC on our 25th anniversary. In his keynote presentation, he told a story about people believing in angles. He said, ” I have an announcement to make. There are angels. I’ve been in the presence of them.”

Then he gave us some data from the Gallup Survey.

George Gallup, f0under of the company, 75 years ago crafted the question, “Do you Believe in Angels?”

25 years ago, 50% of Americans answered affirmatively to the question. Today, 80% of survey respondents say they believe in Angels. Said Clifton, “Val, because of you and the good people at NAHC, and others like you, more people believe in angels.”

What about you? Do you believe in angels? Give us your comments below:
