Rabbi Aryeh Spero prayer opening Republican National Convention August 26, 2020, Conference of Jewish Affairs President:

'divine protection over our brothers and sisters in the path of storms along our Gulf Coast."

“Father, we pray that this outlook and mindset, this form of government continues as has been our history, especially now when to our horror, it is being challenged. And so we pray that God gives strength and health to our President, who has splendidly demonstrated daily his determination to defend and maintain the God-given rights of our citizens as enshrined in our constitution and in our declaration, eloquently passed down through our Judaeo-Christian tradition.

President Trump has stood up fearlessly against those who are corrupting the term social justice so as to deny Americans their birthright and these divine gifts. May God protect him. May God bless all those in government and among our citizens who seek to honor, defend and preserve our heritage.”

“We are compelled to resurrect and give rebirth, to our providential beginning to renew our present days with the exuberance of those founding days, perhaps, that is what is meant when we say, Make America Great Again. We plan to vigilantly protect and tend the garden, so as to imbibe its blessing.”
