(By Kevin Sheehan, The New York Post). Worshippers at a New Jersey church cheered Donald Trump on Sunday, telling the president-elect to “follow his heart.”
Trump arrived at Lamington Presbyterian Church in Bedminster Township for services at 10 a.m. and left to enthusiastic applause at 11:15 a.m.
The church is just two miles from The Donald’s Trump National Golf Club Bedminster, where the president-elect was set to interview cabinet candidates.
Congregant Jim Tiesi, 66, shook Trump’s hand and told him the nation has his back.
“I just told him that I hope he understands the country supports him and not to be distracted by the noise,” said Tiesei, likely one of the 47 percent voters who backed Trump. “He told me, `Thank you.’

Why is it I doubt a person who had been a member for 45 years said “We gave him a standing ovation at the end of Mass, a rousing standing ovation!”
The reaction to board President- elect Trump speaks volumes about tge general tone or culture of this NJ congregation. The implication is that there is a strong contingent therein that unflinchingly has assessed the damage done to this country ( and doubtlessly the PCUSA) upon beng envenomed by liberalism.
I’d bet this church has explored departing from this once hale and hearty bulwark of the Faith; now devolved into a synagogue of Satan!!
Um .. I’m wondering if the reporter got the quote wrong, or after 45 years the members still don’t get the idea that you don’t do ‘Mass’ in the Reformed faith:
““I just want to say thank you to President-elect Trump from the bottom of my heart. I’ve been a member of this church for 45 years and the whole congregation is thrilled to have him,” Ricco said.
“We gave him a standing ovation at the end of Mass, a rousing standing ovation!”
