FAITH FORUM

Our Twitter friend People of Faith for Pete attended the Faith Forum and provided us with some wonderful photos and thoughts about it.

Meeting our next president was one of the most beautiful experiences I have ever had. He allowed me to pray a blessing in Hebrew over him from Proverbs that he will be a wise leader. Hearing his faith in action reminded me why I'm in this. #TeamPete #AllIn #NCforPete #faithforum pic.twitter.com/NaeOV93uoD

"Blessed is a nation when it's rulers are concerned with justice." Proverbs 29:4, the verse I prayed over Pete as he welcomed me with an embrace that felt like belonging to my nation once more. #PeteForAmerica #TeamPete #whyPete #DemocraticDebate pic.twitter.com/h2IMWhDiVO

I prayed these prayers over Pete:

Baruch atah Adonai Eloheinu melekh ha’olam shenatan mikvodo l’basar vadam.

Baruch atah A-donai E-loheinu melekh ha’olam ha'adamah America.

& Proverbs 29:4: When the leader is concerned with justice, the nation will be strong.

.@PeteButtigieg: We have to work toward reconciliation for the day after this presidency. In my faith, we are preparing for a day of universal reunion, so what I am trying to do is small potatoes. But we have to work toward that day. #faithforum #TeamPete #hope #PeteForAmerica
