National Day of Prayer

The National Day of Prayer is an annual observance in the United States that encourages Americans to unite in prayer, reflection, and gratitude. Held typically on the first Thursday of May, it provides an opportunity for individuals, communities, and organizations across various faiths to come together to seek guidance, express thankfulness, and promote unity. While it is voluntary and non-denominational, its primary goal is to foster a spirit of cooperation and hope among citizens by emphasizing the importance of faith and prayer in shaping a positive society.
