Melania says she'll pray every day for hospitalized children following Papal meeting – as she reveals she will be the first Catholic to live in the White House since the Kennedys
When Melania Trump recited The Lord's Prayer before a Melbourne, Florida presidential rally in February, the Internet went hog wild.
Now we know one reason why the first lady began with 'Let us pray' and 'Our Father who art in heaven' when she introduced the president that evening: She's a practicing Roman Catholic.
Her spokeswoman Stephanie Grisham confirmed that to DailyMail.com on Wednesday, hours after Pope Francis blessed a rosary for her at the Vatican.
The last Catholics to live in the White House were John F. Kennedy and his wife Jackie. Melania and her son Barron will move to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue over the summer.
Mrs. Trump did more than just show up for a Papal audience.
She spent time in prayer at the Vatican-affiliated Bambin Gesù (Baby Jesus) Hospital, and laid flowers at the feet of a statue of the Madonna.

Do the never-trumpers ever stop?! Even to picking on french fries, for God’s sake.
No, that is not correct. She cannot take communion.
I love Melania, and it appears she has a wonderful heart, and of course is beautiful as well. She may be the reason Trump seems to have made an about face from his liberal ways.
On a thread about our First Lady praying for sickly children no less.
It must be amazing to see it that way, alone in a place like that, nothing else to hinder your view.
They can’t help themselves, I guess.
I wonder if their prayers included being thankful and humbled for the opportunity being the most powerful people on earth?
I wonder if that is what they were thinking when they were at the Western Wall and in Sistine Chapel?
For the thousandth time, Trump was always a law and order man. Always. How could he not be? He did business in NYC, built homes for people in NYC. He saw what was happening in the 60s and 70s and he was vocal about the decline in living standards during that period. That is conservative.
Good question.
I think he looks at it as just one more job to excel at.
Perhaps he thinks of that too.
Trump said he prayed for wisdom
As all leaders should

I hadn’t seen it yet. Very nice.
Thank you for bringing it to our attention.
I am astounded at who is responsible for anything good Trump is recognized as being or doing.
For some people, it’s just NEVER Trump.
Good freakin’ grief!
Get over it folks! You were wrong as could be. So what at this point. Grow up and join the rest of us, FINALLY!
Thanks KC_Lion. Very nice.
I’m glad for the little boy and feel bad about where the new heart came from and the grief associated with that.
At least a part of the donor will live on, and I think that is very special.
GREAT PIC.
.
only if they were Catholic religious services.
I haven't donated to the FReep-a-thon yet, and now I can't sleep!

That’s it! That’s who she looks like, MM. Sophia Loren, 100%. A truly classic beauty, stunning on the outside as well as on the inside. DJT hit the jackpot with her, and we are so blessed to have them both in the White House!
