U.S. Senator Elizabeth Dole visits Lumberton


U.S. Senator, Elizabeth Dole, visited Lumberton Monday evening for a ribbon cutting at the Republican Party's new election headquarters. About 200 people attended the event. Sen. Dole addressed the crowd and then was available for greetings and pictures. During her address, Sen. Dole asked not only for our vote, but also for our prayers. The highlight of the evening came when Drew gave Senator Dole one of her signature cards. Drew had written on the card, "I can't vote, but I can pray. Philippians 4:13" After thanking Drew for the picture and commenting on how beautiful Drew is, Sen. Dole then handed the card to one of her assistants and told him to hang on to the card that she was going to read Philippians 4:13 as part of her devotion that evening.

Before every event that Drew attends, we pray that Drew will not only represent the Lumbee Tribe well, but most of all that she will represent Jesus well and that others will see Jesus in her.

Senator Dole, best wishes in the upcoming election and remember... You can do all things through Christ who gives you strength.
