- Mark, the presidentacknowledged Muslims, Catholics,

Jews and Evangelicals inthe crowd this morning,

and he praised the work that they do.

He highlighted hisadministration's track record

on religious liberty, andhe promised the audience

he would never let them down.

One of his biggest applause lines came

when he talked about abortion.

- All children, born and unborn, are made

in the holy image of God.

- The president toutedthe administration's work

on criminal reform,criminal justice reform,

human trafficking and work to release

Pastor Andrew Brunsonfrom a Turkish prison.

He did not talk about refugees,

which is a point of contentionwith many evangelicals.

They're concerned aboutthe administration's

historic low levels of admittancefor Christian refugees.

One battle the president didtake extra time to talk about,

faith-based adoption agencies,which are fighting in court

for the right to notwork with gay couples.

- My administration is working to ensure

that faith-based adoption agencies

are able to help vulnerable children

find their foreverfamilies, while following

their deeply held beliefs.

- Mark, faith-based adoptionagencies are concerned about

an Obama Era rule that says

that they must work with gay couples.

It's not clear how theTrump administration

will protect them, althoughit did grant an exemption

to a South Carolinafaith-based agency recently.

- Heather, this breakfast comes at a time

when evangelicals frequentlyfeel attacked by the culture.

Did this come up at the breakfast?

- Well, indirectly, thePresident gave a shout-out

to Karen Pence, the Vice President's wife.

As you know, liberals havecriticized her recently

for working at a Christian school

that supports Biblical sexual ethics.

Also, take a look at this picture,

a very nice bipartisan moment

where Republican Senator James Lankford

and Democrat Senator Christopher Coons

prayed for the President.

They both met in aCongressional Bible study.

Back to you, Mark.
