The National Day of Prayer is an annual observance held on the first Thursday of May, inviting people of all faiths to pray for our nation.

It was created in 1952 by a joint resolution of the United States Congress and signed into law by President Harry S. Truman. Since its inception, this day has continually united Americans from all socio-economic, political, and ethnic backgrounds in prayer while also encouraging personal repentance and righteousness in the culture.

The National Day of Prayer belongs to all Americans and is a day that transcends differences, bringing together citizens together in celebration of  prayer.

This year’s observance for Shoreline/LFP will be held at the SCC gymnasium, Thursday, May 5, 7pm, and is sponsored by the Open Door Christian Fellowship of SCC, along with other college clubs and local places of worship.
