'We can rebuild the church. We can replace the furnishings of a nursery,' said Rev. Mariann Budde, referring to an area damaged during protests. 'We can't bring a man's life back.'
"He took the symbols sacred to our tradition and stood in front of a house of prayer in full expectation that would be a celebratory moment," Mariann Budde said in an interview Monday after her statement on Trump's visit was posted to the diocese's Twitter account.
The Rev. Mariann Budde, whose diocese St. John's belongs to, said she was "outraged" by Trump's visit and noted that he didn't pray while stopping by the church, a landmark known for its regular visits from sitting presidents since the early 19th century. "There was nothing I could do but speak out against that," she added, calling for a focus on "the deeper wounds of the country" amid ongoing demonstrations against racial injustice.
"We can rebuild the church. We can replace the furnishings of a nursery," she said, referring to the damaged area. "We can't bring a man's life back."
