The group was said to have prayed for the president during a meeting with members of the Office of Public liaison. Prominent persons like Jack Graham, the pastor of Prestonwood Baptist Church in Plano, Texas and Michele Bachmann, the former Republican congresswoman from Minnesota were seen there.
Howard-Browne is a South African who moved to America in 1987 after being called by God. He described the experience as being humbling as he had the opportunity to pray for the forty-fifth president of the United States.
According to the Facebook post he made, they had the opportunity to pray for wisdom, guidance and protection for the president. This would make them experience a spiritual awakening according to him.
A former senior vice president at Liberty University, Johnnie Moore, also had the opportunity to be at the meeting. He revealed that they used to pray with Obama but things are a little different with Trump.
''When we are praying for President Trump, we are praying within the context of a real relationship, of true friendship,'' he said.
