President Donald Trump joined Christian faith leaders to commemorate Holy Week, the time leading to Easter Sunday.
According to WFIN, Trump spoke about his commitment to Christianity at the White House event.
“This is really — I hope — going to be one of the great Easters ever, because we have something going that I don’t think this country has seen in 100 years. And as we gather with family and friends, we’ll not forget the true source of our joy and our strength: America has put our trust in God,” Trump said. “It will always be ‘In God We Trust.’ We will never change that.”
“You know there’s a movement to change it,” Trump said. “It won’t happen. We won’t let that happen. Can you imagine a movement to change that?”
He also seized the moment by reassuring those present that his administration will fight for Christians everywhere.
“We had nobody fighting for our Christians in other parts of the world, that were being so incredibly destroyed, killed, injured, hurt. But they died, so many died. You wouldn’t think that could happen in this time — in this modern time,” the president said.
Trump informed the audience of the White House Faith Office. This replaced the former White House Office of Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships.
“You don’t hear about that very much, but there is anti-Christian bias,” Trump said.
