Hello, Wisdom,
Blessings to you on this National Day of Prayer! A brief history: A day for fasting, prayer, and meditation has been around since 1775, when it was first established by the Second Continental Congress. To reflect the diverse demographic of this country, most presidents have issued this proclamation for people of faith. Declared by the United States Congress in 1952, US code 36, section 119, reads:
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.
To celebrate, we're giving away 1,000 copies of one of our best-selling books, Prayer: Our Deepest Longing.
It is free until midnight tonight to the first 1,000 readers —no codes, no catch! You pay only the shipping costs. Limit one per customer please. Click on the image below to request your copy now!
Our prayers are with you.
We appreciate your support of our ministry, which supports the work of the Franciscan Friars of the St. John the Baptist Province. From our family to your family: God bless you!
Your Friends at Franciscan Media
