During my years as pastor of Capitol Hill Presbyterian in Washington, DC, one of the benefits of proximity to the U. S. Capitol was the honor of an occasional invitation to serve as Guest Chaplain for the U. S. House of Representatives and deliver the opening prayer. It was always a moving experience regardless of one's political persuasion. I had the invitation to again do this in May of 2018, representing Trinity Presbyterian Church in Clearwater, FL.
