In a tweet, Trump also said she was "grateful to listen and learn from faith & community leaders how together we can bring about healing and holistic revitalization to underserved communities across the nation."

"Black churches are great forces for justice, equality and human dignity in our nation," the tweet reads.

Trump is a senior advisor to Pres. Donald Trump, her father.
