Pentagon To Host Good Friday Service Just For Protestants, Not Catholics
Yahoo • • world
Key Points:
- The Pentagon invited over 3,500 employees to a Good Friday Protestant service at its chapel, excluding a Catholic Mass, which sparked criticism from some employees.
- An internal email confirmed that only a Protestant service was scheduled, with no separate Catholic service planned for Good Friday.
- The Pentagon Memorial Chapel serves as a 24-hour interfaith space for prayer and reflection, but the specific Good Friday service was Protestant-only.
- Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, known for his evangelical Christian views, has previously incorporated his religious beliefs into Pentagon events, including hosting a prayer service praising President Trump.
