Trump Just Made a Bold Declaration About Jesus: This is What’s Happening at the White House This Easter
President Trump issued a faith-filled presidential message on Palm Sunday in honor of Holy Week as Christians around the world commemorate the holiest time of the year. And now there are reports that his administration is also planning a unique Easter staff worship ceremony at the White House with Rev. Franklin Graham as well as Pastors Greg Laurie and Jentezen Franklin.
Trump’s Holy Week message wasn’t a typical, obligatory, official government statement. Instead, it was filled with the type of language used by Christians, pointing to this week as being sacred to his personal faith, as his own post to Truth Social even declared, “HE IS RISEN!”

He declared, “This Holy Week, Melania and I join in prayer with Christians celebrating the crucifixion and resurrection of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ—the living Son of God who conquered death, freed us from sin, and unlocked the gates of Heaven for all of humanity.”
President Trump’s declaration is just the start of what’s expected to be a week of intense White House focus on Christ’s world-changing sacrifice, including a number of special moments.
In a post on social media, the White House confirmed a report by Fox News that the president will participate in special faith events this week, and Franklin Graham also confirmed that he’ll be joining the White House during Holy Week. “I’m thankful for President @realDonaldTrump and the White House Faith Office, and I look forward to being there this week,” he wrote.
The new White House Faith Office, led by Jennifer Korn and Paula White-Cain, is reportedly organizing the events.
“Throughout the week, we will distribute a Holy Week proclamation, a special presidential video message (and) host a pre-Easter dinner and White House staff Easter service,” Korn told Fox.
That staff worship service is planned for Holy Thursday and will reportedly be led by Franklin Graham, as well as Pastor Greg Laurie and Pastor Jentezen Franklin, who will participate in prayer, scripture reading, and communion.
Korn said that service “will be a special time of prayer and worship at the White House to be shared with Americans celebrating the week leading up to Resurrection Sunday.”
