Thus, the clergy and faithful of the Orthodox Church in America will keep you in our prayers, praying for your good health, sound judgment, and wise governance, as you faithfully serve the American people as our President. In your service, may you be found worthy to receive the blessings of the Lord as spoken by the Psalmist, “Blessed are they who observe justice, who do righteousness at all times (Ps 106:3)!”
Sincerely Yours in Christ,
