This is the 57th Annual National Day of Prayer always held on the first Thursday of May. The theme for this year is “Prayer! America’s Strength and Shield” based on the verse from Psalm 28:7, “The Lord is my strength and shield; my heart trusts in Him and I am helped.”

The National Day of Prayer Task Force’s mission is to communicate with every individual the need for personal repentance and prayer, mobilizing the Christian community to intercede for America and its leadership in the seven centers of power: Government, Military, Media, Business, Education, Church and Family.
