The White House has more than 130 rooms but there is no

Chapel in the White House

There are more than one hundred and thirty rooms in the White House which include the First Family's living quarters, a library, swimming pool, exercise room, bowling alley, movie theater, medical facilities, conference rooms, concession stand, Cabinet Room, War Room, the State Dining Room, the East Room, suites of offices for the President including the famous Oval Office, and offices for the White House staff.

Missing is a Chapel in the White House.

People who visit the White House are shown the Green Room, Red Room, Blue Room, and the China Room among others.  But visitors have not seen a Chapel because there is no Chapel in the White House.

The United States Senate and the United States House of Representatives have Chapels and Chaplains.  Chapels are aboard ocean going ships, at airports, hospitals, colleges, universities, and many public and private buildings.  Chaplains serve in jails and prisons throughout the country and many state and federal prisons have chapels.

I encourage all people of faith to join in this nationwide inititative promoting a Chapel in the White House.

Write, call or send an e-mail message to President George W. Bush expressing your support for a Chapel in the White House and encourage your friends and associates to contact the President as well.
