From Kentucky-At a gathering of “Red Letter Christians” in Goldsboro, North Carolina, over 100 Christian leaders from across the country signed a letter supporting the impeachment inquiry into President Trump.
Under the #PrayForTruth hashtag, the statement calls on fellow Christians to support the inquiry as a search for the truth, and to pray for all the elected leaders involved in the inquiry.
