of Jesus Christ. When Graham replied that he did Kennedy said, "Why don't we hear about this in the Catholic church?" Graham sensed that Kennedy was hungry for spiritual knowledge and that he was searching for deeper spiritual truth. The Haitian Curse Against Kennedy Three succeeding Kennedy generations have been stricken with tragedy. Joseph Kennedy, Jr. was killed in a military plane crash, John Kennedy was murdered in Dallas, and Robert Kennedy was assassinated in California. Ted was humiliated by an incident in Chappaquidik, and John Kennedy, Jr. died in a plane crash. This has led many to ask, "Is there a curse on the Kennedy family?" Allegedly, there was a curse placed upon John Kennedy after his blockade of the island of Haiti. Haiti was controlled by Papa Doc, a dictator and professed witch doctor.

In this act, a voodoo doll represented Kennedy and sharp needles were driven into the doll in symbolic areas of attack. The needles were allegedly placed in Kennedy's head. An evil spirit was commanded to find a Kennedy assassin. Several weeks later, an assassin shot Kennedy in the head. The Bible makes it clear that occult curses have no power over people who are engaged in a covenant with God (Numbers 23:1-30). I don't want to judge Kennedy's personal religious faith, but being religious is different from being born again and entering a covenant relationship with God through Jesus Christ. Religion cannot protect you, but a covenant relationship with God can! Two weeks before his trip to Dallas, Kennedy sensed that his life was in danger. His own secretary warned him not to go to Dallas because she did not feel good about the trip. Kennedy disregarded the feeling and went anyway. On that beautiful day in Dallas, the assassin waited in the book depository window for the presidential motorcade to turn the corner and provide a clear shot. In 1960, we saw yet another beloved president fade into eternity when the cycle struck again. I have toured the book depository in Dallas. It now houses a museum on its sixth floor. It is an eerie place as people often stand in silence remembering the assassination. You may have heard the following information about the parallels between the deaths of John F.
