New House chaplain keeps praying through the turmoil Chris Cioffi © Provided by Roll Call Margaret G. Kibben says her guiding philosophy is to “love people where they are, as they are.” House Chaplain Margaret G. Kibben begins many of her prayers in a familiar place “Would you pray with me?” The new chaplain has invited people to pray with her often, on some of the most difficult days Congress has seen in many years. Since being sworn in on Jan. 3, Kibben has prayed after the death of a Capitol Police officer, during a bitter partisan debate on pandemic aid and as she stood in the chamber on Jan. 6 while a pro-Trump mob beat on the barricaded doors.
