11th Annual Clay City Area-Wide Call to Pray – Thursday, May 1

11th Annual Clay City Area-Wide Call to Pray – Thursday, May 1 Churches within the Clay City School District will be leading in prayer and music on the 74rd Annual National Day of Prayer, Thursday, May 1, 2025 at 7:00 p.m. This year’s annual event will be hosted by the Clay City First Baptist Church (off Main Street). The National Day of Prayer is a vital part of America’s heritage and is as relevant and critical today as it was at the first call by our Continental Congress in 1775. Established in public law by a joint resolution of Congress, signed by President Truman in 1952, then amended to designate the day under the 100th Congress and President Reagan in 1988, it states that: “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.” Please join us to exercise one of our most precious freedoms – the right to gather, turn to God, and pray. Will you respond to the call? Will you pray for America? For additional information, please contact Clay City Area NDP Coordinator, Pat Burt (618-676-1783).
