The White House social media channels broadcasted the gathering, which carries a long-standing history of celebrating the nation's faith during one of Christianity's most sacred times. Trump, known for his appeal to the religious sector of his base, did not shy away from using the occasion to affirm his commitment to keeping "In God We Trust" as the nation's motto, emphasizing the power of faith in American society.
The event, which was streamed online for the public, included various religious leaders and featured remarks from President Trump, who underscored the significance of faith in overcoming the nation's challenges.
