 [Wash Times] President Trump began the holiday break by hosting an Amish delegation in the Oval Office, the first time members of the reclusive community have received that honor.
They might be an odd pairing ‐ the brash and extravagant billionaire president and the humble Amish ‐ but they enjoy a kinship in their Christian faith and work ethic, the Amish visitors told The Washington Times.
"He is a common man just like me and everybody else ‐ very common, very friendly. He called us friends when we walked in there," said Levi Miller, 56, an Amish farmer from Ohio. "It gets people excited that we have somebody in there who is not afraid to talk about Jesus Christ." |
