Clay Higgins, also known as Cajun John Wayne is well known to our readers.  His Crimestopper videos took the country by storm but there is another storm brewing at a Red Cross shelter in Lafayette, Louisiana after he prayed with several flood victims.

Clay Higgins, a reserve city marshal dropped by after work to minister to evacuees at the Heymann Performing Arts Center on Aug. 19th.

Higgins left the premises to pray for someone that requested it.

He said that he wasn’t “proselytizing” and that he was “just there to thank volunteers and offer prayers and encouragement.”

Higgins was dressed in uniform and was holding a Bible.

At some point during the visit a volunteer approached Higgins and mentioned there was a problem.

When Higgins asked him what the problem was, he told him the Bible was the problem.

Higgins said he was escorted to a Red Cross supervisor who asked him to leave.

Higgins said that the “supervisor told me the Red Cross is not a religious-based organization and they don’t allow religious interaction with the residents.”

 

Oddly enough, the Red Cross was founded by a Christian Businessman.
