"President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump attended church services Sunday morning at St. John's Church near the White House. This is the first time the president has visited the Episcopal church, popularly referred to as "the Church of the Presidents," since becoming
commander-in-chief.
Evangelist Franklin Graham wrote on his Facebook page Sunday, "The Bible encourages us, 'Let us then approach God’s throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need' (Hebrews 4:16)."
President Trump declared Sunday to be a "National Day of Prayer," late last week – joining with Texas Gov. Greg Abbott, who has also called on Texans to pray for recovery efforts after the historic storm.
"We are deeply grateful for those performing acts of service, and we pray for healing and comfort for those in need," the president's proclamation reads.
"As response and recovery efforts continue, and as Americans provide much-needed relief to the people of Texas and Louisiana, we are reminded of Scripture's promise that 'God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble,'" the proclamation states.
"I call on all Americans and houses of worship throughout the Nation to join in one voice of prayer, as we seek to uplift one another and assist those suffering from the consequences of this terrible storm," Trump continued." CBN
