Since I published, other federal employees have reached out with examples of overt Christianity in the workplace.

Before Thanksgiving, Director of the US Marshals sent out this message to all employees: "Your work is not just a job; it is an opportunity to contribute and to honor God."

Subject: Message from Director Serralta - - RE: Thanksgiving Holiday USMS Team, Tomorrow as a Country we celebrate a uniquely American tradition of giving thanks throughout the day for our many blessings. As you are the foundation of our success, I want to express my sincere gratitude for your hard work and dedication, enabling the United States Marshals Service to achieve our myriad of justice-inspired missions in service to this great Nation. It is fitting to reflect back on the history of our Agency and this treasured holiday since they were both established in the same year. In 1789, New Jersey congressman Elias Boudinot proposed that the House and Senate jointly ask President Washington to proclaim a day of thanksgiving for "the many signal favors of Almighty God." Washington then created the first U.S. government-mandated Thanksgiving Day. It read in part: "Now therefore I do recommend and assign Thursday the 26th day of November next to be devoted by the People of these States to the service of that great and glorious Being, who is the beneficent Author of all the good that was, that is, or that will be.” Our legacy continuously reminds us of the purpose behind our labor, as does sacred text. From Colossians 3:23-24, "Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward. You are serving the Lord Christ". Your work is not just a job; it is an opportunity to contribute and to honor God. We at the United States Marshals Service have always stood for service to our fellow citizens. Doing our best for others is deeply rooted in who we are. I wish you and your families a happy and safe holiday. We extend our special thanks to those of you who will be working over the holiday or are separated from your families. May God bless you and keep you. Respectfully, Gadyaces S. Serralta Director
