@BishopBarron And your soul sister standing behind you compared Trump to Jesus and His suffering .. never heard such an unchristian dialogue in my life!
Friends, yesterday, I had the opportunity to offer a prayer at an Easter lunch hosted by the White House. What follows is the text of that invocaton:
Heavenly Father, almighty and eternal God, provident Lord of history, we come before you today in an attitude of humble gratitude. We are thankful, Lord, for this opportunity to be together in fellowship, for the faith that unites us, and for the blessings of liberty that we enjoy as Americans. But we are grateful, above all, on this holiest week of the year, for the gift of your Son Jesus Christ, who is God from God, light from light, true God from true God; who is the Yes to all the promises made to Israel; who is the Lamb standing as though slain; who is the Alpha and the Omega; who is the Lion of Judah; who is the desire of the everlasting hills; and who is the Word made flesh.
Father, you so loved the world that you sent your only Son that all who believe in him might not perish but might have eternal life. On Good Friday, you sent him indeed to the very limits of godforsakenness that he might gather back to you even those who had wandered furthest away. On the cross, he took upon himself the sins of the world—injustice, cruelty, hatred, violence, betrayal, and denial—that he might swallow them up in the ever-greater divine mercy. On Easter Sunday, Father, you raised him from death, showing your victory over all of the powers of darkness. Having met the risen Jesus, St. Paul could therefore say, “I am certain that neither death nor life, neither angels nor principalities, neither height nor depth, nor any other creature could separate us from the love of God.” We bless you, Father, for you have given us the privilege of declaring the kingship of Christ to the world and calling all people to be subject to him. And so, Lord, conform us to Christ your Son. Clothe us, we pray, with his compassion, his meekness, his love for the poor.
Father, we ask you to bless our country. Make us prosperous and safe, but above all, make us morally upright and order our freedom toward your truth. Bless our troops, especially those who are most directly in harm’s way. Protect them and make them righteous warriors. And finally, Father, bless our President. Give him the grace, the courage, the wisdom, and the prudence he needs to perform his duties according to your will.
We say, with gratitude, that we are a nation under God. We acknowledge that in you we live and move and have our being. We know that our freedom and rights come from you. Continue, Lord, to shed your grace on us and to hold us in the palm of your hand.
We pray through Christ our Lord. Amen.
@ScottforFlorida Interesting that the same people who are demeaning and harming so many of God’s people are on
Here preaching to us about Good Friday!
Did someone send a memo to y’all?
@SecRollins So interesting that all of the members of the party that is demeaning and harming so many of God’s people are on here preaching to us about Good Friday!
Guess someone sent a memo this morning !😂😂😂
On this Good Friday, we kneel before the Cross in sorrow and awe. We remember the suffering Jesus Christ willingly endured to redeem the world and save each one of us.
And even in His final agony, His words were mercy: “Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do.”
What a powerful reminder to forgive, to carry our cross, and to follow Him faithfully.
Today is solemn. Today is sacred. And today, I am deeply grateful for the mercy and salvation won for us on the Cross.
He died for us. He lives for us. And because of Him, we are forgiven. ✝️
On Good Friday, we remember the greatest act of love and grace the world has ever known in the sacrifice of Jesus Christ.
"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life." - John 3:16
WHO’S ‘THE BOSS’?: On Thursday’s “The Right Squad,” the panel discussed President Trump urging his MAGA base to boycott Bruce Springsteen’s upcoming shows, as the rocker continues to spew left-wing propaganda at his concerts.

The goal of this operation was clear: to destroy Iran’s chance of ever building a nuclear weapon.
President Trump did just that.
Very well said @SecRubio
TRUMP URGES IRAN DEAL: President Donald Trump on Thursday posted a video of a massive bridge strike in Iran, using the footage to urge Tehran to "make a deal before it is too late." MORE: bit.ly/41aUUWS
@SenRickScott You support a man who’s spiritual adviser equates him to Jesus.. don’t tell me what to believe on
Good Friday.. maybe you should go read the Ten Commandments instead of tweeting religion at us !
This Good Friday, we pause and reflect on the sacrifice that Jesus Christ made for each and every one of us as we look to His resurrection!
“For our sake he made him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.”
2 Corinthians 5:21

Senator Schumer confirms that Democrats are responsible for blocking TSA funding.
“We held it up...”
Democrats created chaos at airports and forced Americans to miss flights to protect illegal immigrants.
@washingtonpost Gurl… bet your bottom dollar trump is not gonna die for your sins.. he cares about himself and no one else .. most un godlike man on
Earth!
Pastors, bishops, and reverends joined President Trump at the White House for Easter prayers.
Pastor Paula White-Cain, a spiritual advisor to the president, likened Trump's experiences to those of Jesus Christ, saying he too was "betrayed and arrested and falsely accused."
Democrats’ so-called “reforms” to ICE would make it impossible for ICE to do its job.
And that’s exactly what Democrats want: no immigration enforcement at all.
Republicans will look like complete schmucks when Democrats nuke the filibuster and turn America into a one-party nation.
We must face reality and act now — end it first to save America by securing our elections and ending birthright tourism if the Supreme Court does not.
