Praying Beside the Courthouse

Faith and Action and the Christian Defense Coalition announced that they would be holding a "prayer service in front of the US Supreme Court to mark the opening of the Court's new term ... A poster with the images of the nine justices will be mounted on an easel next to which the ministers will kneel ... Rev. Rob Schenck stated, "This year's prayer service is particularly important because the future of the Supreme Court hangs on the outcome of next year's presidential election ... We will pray God's will be done in the future selection of justices." The CDC's Patrick Mahoney also vowed to get arrested outside the Red Mass.
