Evangelical Christian groups are calling on Congress to reinstate foreign aid programs shuttered by President Trump ’s administration.

A “Prayer Vigil for Foreign Aid” was held at Capitol Hill Presbyterian Church on Tuesday morning ( March 11 ) The event came a day after Secretary of State Marco Rubio declared that the government will cancel 83% of programs at USAID .

The event was originally planned to be held in front of Congress but had to be moved for scheduling reasons.

Speakers said that when leaders “neglect the vulnerable,” including those who benefit from foreign aid, it amounts to “turning away from God”.
