National Day of Prayer 2012
Thursday, May 03, 2012
May 3rd marks the 61st annual observance of the National Day of Prayer— a day for mobilizing prayer in America and encouraging personal repentance and righteousness in our culture. We are encouraging Life Groups to set aside time that day and/or week to join in prayer with one another for our country’s leadership.
We want to encourage each of you to participate in the National Day of Prayer in one way or another - join an event around the STL area, set aside some quiet time to pray for our government, gather with others from West Hills, fast... We hope that praying for our nation moves from a one-day event to a lifetime endeavor.
