National Day of Prayer

     The National Day of Prayer is celebrated by Americans of many religions, including Christians of many denominations, including Protestants and Catholics, as well as Sikhs, Muslims, Hindus, and Jews, reflecting the demographics of the United States. On the National Day of Prayer, many Americans assemble in prayer in front of courthouses, as well as in houses of worship, such as churches, mosques, synagogues, and temples. 

     On April 17, 1952, President Harry Truman signed a bill proclaiming the National Day of Prayer into law in the United States. President Reagan amended the law in 1988, designating the first Thursday of May each year as the National Day of Prayer.  Since then it has grown to encompass luncheons, picnics, and even popular music performances revolving around praying for the nation.​

      The National Prayer Committee was formed in the United States in 1972. It went on to create the National Day of Prayer Task Force, with the intended purpose of coordinating events for the National Day of Prayer.  According to the Legal Information Institute, the President shall issue each year a proclamation designating the first Thursday in May as a National Day of Prayer on which the people of the United States may turn to God in prayer and meditation at churches, in groups, and as individuals.

     At Martin Luther Campus, we strive to give every opportunity for prayer and spiritual growth.  We supports residents, families and staff to integrate Spiritual Health with their physical, mental and emotional well-being. We honor and respect diverse spiritual needs to each individual as well as making a wide variety of resources available to them.

I'm glad that many countries are participating in this. It warms my heart to see their cooperation. No matter where we live and what we believe in, we still share the same God. We all celebrate the same occasion through the act of praying. This just proves that the church is universal.
