Tim Huelskamp: A Real Catholic in Congress - Thanks be to God!

World Magazine recently featured an article about Tim Huelskamp called Congressman Contra Mundum. It's an appropriate title. Like St. Athanasius before him, this Catholic midwest farmer, husband, adoptive father of four and former state senator isn't afraid to stand up for the faith and family against today's heresy of modernism. The Republican establishment isn't crazy about him, (Surprise!) but that doesn't worry Huelskamp a bit. He's a maverick who isn't afraid to be unpopular. What a breath of fresh air in the Congressional cloakroom!

Check out the man who calls his fellow freshmen to plant the flag on their principles. (Of course, that presumes they have some!) Oh...and for folks like me ... one more endearing fact. He and his wife worked together at a crisis pregnancy center in Washington, D.C. after they married while he got his Ph.D. at American University.

Welcome to Washington, Mr. Congressman! I've adopted you for special prayer support. May God use you powerfully to bring this country back to its moral roots!  I hope lots of other prayer warriors will join me in praying for Tim Huelskamp!
