        Our Chaplain has asked me to find out which government building in DC has this quotation from Micah 6:8 posted:

        ...what does the Lord require of you but to do justice, to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?

         

        I apologize for not knowing whether this supposed to be on the façade of the building, or inside. If you will send responses to me, I will post the correct one as an FYI.

        Thank you in advance,
