National Day of Prayer Rally at PA Capitol
May 7 @ 11:00 am - 12:00 pm EDT
Prayer is essential for God’s people. Where else can we go for help in time of need but to our good, gracious, omnipotent, and omniscient God?
Our state, nation, and world are hurting and we must be in constant prayer on its behalf. We see this call to prayer in Jeremiah 29 where the Lord says, “But seek the welfare of the city where I have sent you into exile, pray to the Lord on its behalf, for in its welfare you will find your welfare.”
God’s people are exiles and sojourners in this world, as we await the new heavens and earth, but still, we are called to pray to the Lord on its behalf so that righteousness, justice, and goodness increase in our world.
To this end, PA’s Church Ambassador Network is inviting you to join them as they come together and commemorate the National Day of Prayer by praying, worshiping, and reading from God’s Word in the beautiful PA Capitol Rotunda. This will be a wonderful time for believers from around the state to join in prayer for our families, state, nation, and world.
This time of prayer will take place Wednesday, May 7, at the Harrisburg Capitol Main Rotunda (501 N. 3rd St., Harrisburg, PA) from 11 a.m. – 12 p.m. (Note: The Church Ambassador Network is hosting this event a week later than the official National Day of Prayer date so legislators and staff can join since it’s a session day).
This is an incredible opportunity for us to lay our cares and burdens before a loving and powerful God. What a gift to be free to come before Him and trust in His sovereignty! We will gather as a community and body of believers, united in faith and our shared goal to bring prayer to the Capitol building.
Following the prayer gathering, pastors are encouraged to join the Church Ambassador Network Team in handing out Bibles to PA legislators.
