At inaugural prayer service, bishop pleads for Trump to ‘have mercy’ on LGBTQ+ people and migrants
SUMMARY: At the January 21, 2025 inaugural prayer service at the Washington National Cathedral, Bishop Mariann Budde called on President Donald Trump to show mercy to LGBTQ+ individuals and undocumented migrants. She referenced his belief in divine protection and urged compassion for those in fear. The service, focusing on national unity, was attended by Trump, Vice President JD Vance, and others. Budde’s sermon emphasized unity across diversity, but excluded conservative evangelicals from speaking roles. While some attendees criticized Budde’s message, others praised her direct appeal. Trump, however, dismissed the service, finding it unexciting. The event included music tailored to Trump’s preferences.
