Petition To Reinstate Chaplain Gordon James Klingenschmitt

March 24, 2009 by Chaplain Gordon Klingenschmitt

Please add your "AMEN" to this prayer and petition~ by writing a blog comment below!

——
A PRAYER TO ALMIGHTY GOD~
and
A PETITION TO SECRETARY OF DEFENSE ROBERT GATES

Dear Sir:

U.S. Navy Chaplain Gordon James Klingenschmitt is being unjustly punished for praying in Jesusí name~ for quoting Scripture passages in a military chapel~ for voicing evangelical messages about Christ while in uniform. 
 
Chaplain Klingenschmitt courageously stood for what is right~ and his stand was completely vindicated by Congress. 

I am calling on you to immediately exonerate him and allow him to continue his outstanding service as a Navy chaplain. Mr. Secretary~ you must act! And fast! Otherwise Chaplain Klingenschmitt will be kicked out of the service by Jan. 31~ ending an award-winning 15.5-year career. He will lose his pension~ health care benefits and be evicted from military housing — and our
sailors will lose this faithful vicar of Christ. 

Yes~ he was found guilty at a misdemeanor court-martial of disobeying a direct order~ based on an unjust Navy policy — Instruction 1730.7C — that since has been repudiated and replaced. 

Yet though the new policy is the direct result of his righteous stand~ Chaplain Klingenschmittís case isnít being "grandfathered" under this corrected policy. He is shown no mercy or forgiveness — indeed he is being persecuted and retaliated against for his role in ending the unconstitutional policy he publicly exposed. 

That is wrong! He should be honored and rewarded for doing whatís right — not dishonored~ punished and impoverished.

Certainly there must be a way for you and your office to absolve this faithful servant of such arbitrary and disproportionate retribution which is being selectively meted out because of his principled resistance to an unlawful~ and now rejected~ policy. Find it and take action! 

Thanks to Chaplain Klingenschmitt~ all Navy and Air Force chaplains are free again to fulfill their mission~ and pray publicly in Jesus’ name! But must the freedom he purchased for others cost him everything? Exonerate Chaplain Klingenschmitt now!

Respect for our Constitution~ simple justice and faithful obedience to religious conscience demands no less! 

Exonerate Chaplain Klingenschmitt!
