On this National Day of Prayer, Congressman Huelskamp prays
the Obama Administration will not punish military personnel for proselytizing
WASHINGTON, DC – Today, May 2nd of the Year of Our Lord 2013, marks the “National Day of Prayer.” In accordance with his statutory duty, President Obama proclaimed: “All of us have the freedom to pray and exercise our faiths openly” and “I join the citizens of our Nation in … asking for God’s continued guidance, mercy, and protection.”
As the President and Secretary of Defense presumably know, Christians are required by myriad Scriptures to proselytize (i.e., “share the Gospel” with or “witness” to non-Christians). For example, Acts 1:8 says: “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.” Mark 16:15 states: “He said to them, ‘Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all |

Kansas Veterans, Beef Exports, and more
Dear Friend,
Visiting with Kansas Veterans in Washington
On Thursday, I was honored to meet with the Kansas Honor Flight veterans when they toured the Marine Corps’ War Memorial.
The mission of Honor Flights is to transport our brave veterans to Washington, D.C. to visit the memorials at no cost to the veterans. Many World War II, Korean War, and Vietnam veterans are retirees on a fixed income who cannot otherwise afford to make the trip. The Honor Flight program provides many of these veterans with their first and only opportunity to visit the memorials that are dedicated to them and those with whom they served.
