GOP Congressman Joins 80 Pastors In Rendition of ‘Amazing Grace’ At The U.S. Capitol Rotunda
Louisiana Republican Rep. Mike Johnson led a Christian history tour, Tuesday, in the U.S. Capitol with 80 pastors, which included a rendition of “Amazing Grace” in the Rotunda, according to Fox News.
The pastors in attendance hailed from 16 different states, and were also joined by their spouses, and a number of current and former politicians. “I always enjoy taking friends and visitors through these hallowed halls, and it was a privilege to take this group of faith leaders on a special tour of the Capitol last night,” Rep. Johnson told the outlet.
He also shared a video of the moment on his social media.

“They were greatly encouraged to see and be reminded of the religious and moral foundations of our country,” the Louisiana Republican continued. “In these times of great division, all Americans would do well to be reminded of those truths and that important heritage.”

Johnson continued, noting that “Church services used to be held routinely in the Capitol, and it is always moving to hear prayers and hymns echoing in the Rotunda today.”

The tour detailed aspects of Christian history throughout the U.S., including its influence over the founders of our nation, the Capitol, and the American idea, Fox reported. It’s not the first time the tour has taken place, as Johnson held another in late March.
