Join local churches on National Day of Prayer on May 5

The annual National Day of Prayer, an occasion for Americans to gather and call out to God on behalf of the country, is Thursday, May 5. The 2022 theme is an invitation and call to worship: “Exalt the Lord who Has Established Us.” It was inspired by this year’s theme verse, “Therefore, as you have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him, having been firmly rooted and now being built up in Him and established in your faith, just as you were instructed, and overflowing with gratitude,” Colossians 2:6-7 (NASB).

Christians all over the country will be observing the National Day of Prayer next week, and LW residents can participate locally in a gathering at Rush Park, 3021 Blume Drive, Rossmoor, from 6:30-8 p.m. on Thursday, May 5. The event is sponsored by area churches and ministries.

The annual national broadcast, produced this year in collaboration with Pray.com and The Museum of the Bible, will air on television and radio, and will be streamed through social media at 8 p.m. ET. For station and social media information, visit www. nationaldayofprayer.org.
