Whereas we each have been richly blessed by the Almighty
whose divine providence our founding fathers sought as
they established these United States of America as a free
and independent Nation;
Whereas George Washington, the acknowledged father of our
country, has been documented as having said: ‘‘...we
ought to be no less persuaded that the propitious smiles
of Heaven can never be expected on a Nation that dis-
regards the eternal rules of order and right which Heav-
en itself has ordained.’’;
•HJ 113 IH
Whereas our Christian heritage is recognized in the writings
and accomplishments of such individuals as William
Bradford, John and Abigail Adams, James Madison, Pat-
rick Henry, Andrew Jackson, Abraham Lincoln, Wood-
row Wilson, Harry S Truman, Dwight D. Eisenhower,
and countless others, and in the constitutions of the sev-
eral sovereign States, and innumerable public documents
and utterances;
Whereas the religious faith and traditions of our people are
often reflected in the prayers offered preceding each
day’s opening of Congress, from its inception unto this
day;
Whereas the contributions of our Christian heritage to the in-
stitutions, values and vision of our Nation is immeas-
urable;
Whereas our Christian heritage is further reflected by our
people and our leaders, past and present, in our individ-
ual and collective efforts as a Nation of peacekeepers and
peacemakers to provide for other peoples, both in Amer-
ica and abroad, by providing humanitarian assistance to
our fellow men, women and children; and
Whereas it is entirely appropriate to recognize the Pilgrims’
First Thanksgiving for God’s Providence as a special
time and reason for acknowledging our Christian herit-
age: Now, therefore, be it
