{{Block quote|First and foremost, thanks for your patience as we made sure we gathered the facts in regards to recent postings. We have determined that one of our independent Restaurant Operators in Pennsylvania was asked to provide sandwiches to two Art of Marriage video seminars. As our fans, you know we do our best to serve our local communities, and one of the ways we do that is by providing food to schools, colleges, civic groups, businesses, places of worship, not-for-profit groups, etc. At his discretion, the local Operator agreed to simply provide a limited amount of food. Our Chick-fil-A Operators and their employees try very hard every day to go the extra mile in serving ALL of our customers with honor, dignity and respect.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.facebook.com/ChickfilA/posts/188388574507039 |title=Chick-fil-A Facebook Page |publisher=Facebook |date=January 6, 2011 |accessdate=2012-03-23}}</ref>}}
