Kansas House chamber to host evangelical workshop
The Kansas House's chamber will be the site this week of a three-day workshop for dozens of evangelical Christians.
Organizers describe the event as a beginner's course in preparing for a transforming revival. But House Majority Leader Arlen Siegfreid, listed as the event's legislative sponsor, said Wednesday it also will help people of faith understand state government better.
The workshop includes evening sessions Thursday and Friday and an all-day session Saturday.
The request to use the House chamber was made in May by the state director for the Capitol Commission, a national nonprofit group that brings pastors to Statehouses to advise policymakers. The workshop program is from The Sentinel Group, based in Washington state.
The event is drawing criticism from Americans United for Separation of Church and State.
