NATIONAL DAY OF PRAYER
Every 1st Thursday in May
Direct the intercessory energies of your congregation annually in this nation-wide prayer movement. In 1952, a joint resolution by Congress was signed by President Truman declaring an annual, national day of prayer. In 1988, the law was amended and signed by President Reagan, permanently setting the day as the first Thursday of every May. An average of 5,000 intercessors gather across the Greater New York region at various prayer events held the first week of May.
