Letter to the editor: The invocation policy and separation of church and state

Published 5:15 pm Monday, October 29, 2018

We have respect for individuals’ belief in some form of spiritual guidance in their personal lives. However, we, along with many others, believe prayer to be of a personal matter and not to be propagated in normal secular government decisions on public problems.

Prayer as an invocation belongs in a house of worship or in one’s own home.

— Paul and Myra Vos, Kasilof
