Trumps Attend Church Services on Christmas Eve

Sunday, 25 December 2016 07:10 AM EST ET

Donald Trump is kicking off Christmas by attending midnight services at an Episcopal church in Palm Beach, Florida.

The president-elect and his wife, Melania, arrived Saturday night at the Church of Bethesda-by-the-Sea. The soon-to-be first couple were married at the church in 2005.

 

 

 

 Trump has bemoaned the increased use of the term "Happy Holidays" in place of "Merry Christmas" as a sign that Christianity is under attack. As president, he's said, he'll reverse the trend.

The president-elect is spending the holidays at his Florida estate, Mar-a-Lago, where he's been holding meetings with senior staff, advisers and business executives.

Trump tweeted wishes for a "Happy Hanukkah" earlier Saturday.
