WHAT IS NATIONAL DAY OF PRAYER?
The National Day of Prayer is an annual day of observance held on the first Thursday of May, designated by the United States Congress, when people are asked “to turn to God in prayer and meditation”. The president is required by law to sign a proclamation each year, encouraging all Americans to pray on this day.
The Apostle Paul admonishes us as a people of God to pray for all men, for those who are in authority over us (1 Timothy 2:1-5).
Join us as we stand in the gap for our nation on May 1, 2025.
