On Thursday, May 5, 2022, our country (the United States) will observe National Day of Prayer.
The National Day of Prayer was established in 1952 as a day for people of all religions to pray for our country.
Section 119 of Title 36 of the United States Code states:
“Every year, the President shall issue a proclamation establishing 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 individually.”
This implies that the National Day of Prayer isn’t simply a nice holiday; it’s also a legal requirement that the President write a proclamation encouraging Americans to pray every year! for more information you can go to https://www.nationaldayofprayer.org/
