Newly sworn--in Secretary of State Marco Rubio concluded his swearing --in ceremony by publicly thanking Jesus Christ for His guidance and support , the Christian Post website reports today (Jan. 24, 2025).
As the 53--year--old Florida Republican and former senator took the helm of U.S. diplomacy during a swearing--in ceremony at the State Dept. on Jan.21, Rubio concluded his statement with a public confession of faith.
"I want to end by thanking Almighty God and my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, " said Rubio. That is truly the singular purpose of our lives. It's the most important priority. It's the only thing that will matter when we take our last breath on the Earth. But this is an extraordinary opportunity that would not have been possible without God's blessings."
Baptized Roman Catholic as an infant, Rubio's mother attended Mormon services for a while in Nevada where he was baptized again at 8 years old. His days as a Mormon were short lived: when he moved back to Miami at 13, he began attending Catholic services again.
Rubio also attends Protestant Evangelical services at Christ Fellowship in Miami with his wife and former cheerleader Jeanette Christina Dousedebes Rubio.
