National Day of Prayer - May 7, 2009
Thursday, April 16, 2009 at 12:18PM The annual observance for the National Day of Prayer is Thursday, May 7, 2009. The mission of this observance is to call individuals to pray for our nation and its leaders, particularly in the areas of Government, Military, Media, Business, Education, Church and Family.
Events will be carried out all over the country. To find an event closest to you, please visit the National Day of Prayer website. Below is a quotation taken from the site as to why we pray:
Our nation again faces battlefields, along with an epidemic of broken homes, violence, sexual immorality and social strife. As the heroes of our nation did in the past, we must again bow our heads in prayer. We must ask the Lord to bless our leaders with wisdom and protection, and that we will have the fortitude to overcome the challenges at hand. If Roosevelt, the Pilgrims and Lincoln never underestimated the power of prayer, neither should we.
Marti and I will be introducing the program at our local church. Please join us if you can. The date, time, and location are:
