Pitts
It's always worth noting the things you do that exist outside the norm. Felt like today fit that description.
Had a Q & A session with Congressman Joe Pitts from Pennsylvania. Props to my cousin, Amanda Lahr, for setting this up.
Loved his office. He of course had some great meet 'n greet photographs with ambassadors and various heads of state. But he also had a corner highlighting his very own art. He had some great landscape paintings. Appreciated his own level of creativity.
I hadn't taken a Capitol tour in a while, nor had I been on the Hill to visit with staffers for a long period. There are well over 10,000 "staffers" on the hill, filling positions from internships, to staff assistants on up to a chief of staff.
NCC is a revolving door, having a 40% turnover rate/year. This summer we've got a host of Capitol Hill interns that are around for a semester or two.
Great reminder today of where and how our ministry is uniquely positioned to influence the influencers.
