President Donald Trump began his first full day in office attending a prayer service at the Washington National Cathedral on Tuesday and got a sermon he may not have been expecting: an appeal to protect immigrants and respect gay rights.

Rev. Mariann Budde called on the new president to “have mercy” on undocumented immigrants and sexual minorities who were targeted by his hardline Day One blizzard of executive orders.

She also addressed Trump directly while he sat with his wife and the newly appointed vice president, wearing a red tie in the pew next to them.
