Christian TV host and actress Candace Cameron Bure and her husband, former National Hockey League star Valeri Bure, have been invited as the special guests of Christian Broadcasting Network (CBN) during their White House Correspondents' dinner, which will be held on April 30.

Bure is best known for her work on "The View" and the series "Fuller House." She is an outspoken Christian celebrity who never backs down on her moral values and love for God.

"CBN is honored to have Candace and her husband 'Val' as our special guests this year," Director Rob Allman said in a statement shared with The Christian Post. "As a co-host of 'The View,' Candace has become a truly great ambassador for the Christian Community in American entertainment. She and her husband have been at the top of our invite list for several years and we are just thrilled that the schedules worked this year."

Aside from the Bures, also invited to the special event are White House correspondent Jennifer Wishon and CBN's Washington D.C. Bureau Chief Robin Mazyck, who is also a fan of Bure.

"Candace puts family and faith first and is a great role model," said Mazyck. "She willingly shares her Christian values, and we're excited to host her for the weekend."

Earlier, Bure admitted that even though she never shies away from professing her faith, there are still a lot of Christians who are pressuring her to do more.

"There are a lot of people out there who might expect you to uphold their standards, rather than your own," she writes in an article for Motto. "I'm very outspoken about my Christian faith, and I actually face a lot of pressure from others within the faith."

When she joined "Dancing With the Stars," she was constantly being judged for her costumes. Some Christians complained that they were too provocative or revealing. Regarding her appearances on "The View," she has been criticised by some for not speaking up enough for conservative values.

Instead of trying to please everybody, Bure has decided to just live according to her standards. "I've found that people really do respect when you hold true to your convictions and what you value. So you just have to learn to let the comments go and not take them personally, even if they're well-intentioned," she advises.
