Donald Trump Jr. Shows Up at Reston Hispanic Church, Indirectly Stumps for His Dad
The oldest son of the Republican presidential candidate was at a Reston church service on Sunday for some last-minute campaigning.
RESTON, VA — Donald Trump Jr., the first child of Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump, stopped by a Hispanic church in Reston over the weekend for some last-minute campaigning on behalf of his father.
Trump Jr. spoke at Ekklesia USA on North Shore Drive just off Wiehle Avenue during their service on Nov. 6.
He told parishioners of the church that everything they hold dear is "in jeopardy," and that "both parties are responsible for the mess we're in," according to a Lifezette report.

“We as Christians shouldn’t be afraid to express our faith, or say ‘Merry Christmas,’ or stand for our right to free exercise of our religious rights,” he said according to the report. “These sacred rights are in jeopardy now by politicians who defended the status quo of decline for decades.”
The church describes itself on its website as a "primarily apostolic, neo probate [church] that expresses the fullness of the five ministries: Teachers, Prophets, Pastors, Evangelists and Apostles."
