Vice President Mike Pence will address hundreds of persecuted Christians from around the globe at a Washington, D.C., summit hosted by evangelist Franklin Graham this week. Pence, an evangelical Christian who has made religious freedom a priority, is scheduled to address the gathering Thursday morning. Franklin Graham recently discussed the upcoming World Summit in Defense of Persecuted Christians on the “Washington Watch” radio program with host Tony Perkins, president of the Family Research Council.
