State Department to Send Representative to Pastor Saeed Prayer Vigil

In an important gesture of good will and concern, the U.S. State Department is sending a high-level representative to Pastor Saeed's prayer vigil in Washington D.C. In the letter below, the State Department expresses regret that Secretary of State Kerry can't attend but designates Jane Zimmerman, the Assistant Secretary of State for Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor to attend in his place.

We welcome the State Department's presence and look forward to praying alongside Ms. Zimmerman.
