Wednesday April 25 marked the third phase of The National Reform Association's "Operation Potomac" forays to Washington D.C. This was smaller in scope than our July 2000 trip and concentrated on follow up and outreach to the Executive branch.

Christian Statesman" Editor Rev. Bill Einwechter, NRA Boardmembers Rev. Phil Vollman and Gary Humble, along with Rev. Thomas Beresford joined yours truly as we continued to disburse NRA books and material to elected officials and staff at the Federal level.

Concentration for this operation centered on the Department of Justice and the White House. In the morning our team met with Attorney General John Ashcroft's policy advisors wherein we discussed various issues, distributed copies of "Explicitly Christian Politics" and "Messiah the Prince" along with copies of "The Christian Statesman" and a framed proclamation which outlines the NRA's positions for Christian civil government. This was a heartening exchange with men who professed faith in Christ and were positively animated by the material and mission of the NRA especially as an asset to public policy.

In the afternoon, we visited with White House staff in the Old Executive Building adjacent to the West Wing of the White House. Again, we were encouraged that another professing Christian was ensconced in an office (Public Policy and Liaison) that was once used by the Clinton administration to promote militant homosexuality. In addition to our materials we set up communication for ongoing dialog between the NRA and the Bush administration. It is our hope to meet with both the President and the Vice President within the year.

On Capitol Hill, follow up was conducted with House Majority Whip Rep. Tom DeLay's office to set up a time for an NRA biblical worldview seminar to be conducted at the Capitol. This will be oriented especially for the staffers and policy makers. All that is left to do here is the coordination of dates. Follow up was also conducted with Ohio Rep. Steve LaTourette, Oklahoma Rep. J.C. Watts, Indiana Rep. Mark Souder and Ohio Rep. Pat Tiberi.

Coming soon in another post is more encouraging news from the Ohio Chapter of The National Reform Association.

Until then, please continue to pray for the resurgence of the National reform Association and for open effectual doors to be opened.

In Christ
Rev. Jeffrey A. Ziegler
