National Day of Prayer
Join us Thursday May 1st, from 12:00 to 1:00 for the National Day of Prayer.
|
The National Day of
Prayer is an annual observance held on the first Thursday of May,
inviting people of all faiths to pray for the nation. It was created in
1952 by a joint resolution of the United States Congress, and signed
into law by President Harry S. Truman. Our Task Force is a privately
funded organization whose purpose it is to encourage participation on
the National Day of Prayer. It exists to communicate with every
individual the need for personal repentance and prayer, to create
appropriate materials, and to mobilize the Christian community to
intercede for America's leaders and its families. The Task Force
represents a Judeo Christian expression of the national observance,
based on our understanding that this country was birthed in prayer and
in reverence for the God of the Bible.
