WASHINGTON—The man described by U.S. Ambassador for International Religious Freedom Sam Brownback as the godfather of the movement in the United States to protect religious freedom gave a deeply personal call to care for the world’s persecuted faithful at the conclusion of the first day of the Ministerial for International Religious Freedom on July 24.
Retired Rep. Frank Wolf spoke to try to arouse the willingness to hear the voices of those who are oppressed. He quoted Simon and Garfunkel’s “The Boxer” to describe the problem: “a man hears what he wants to hear and disregards the rest.”
