SALEM Challenging times call for a challenge to pray together as one for all for love, life and liberty.
That message resounded during the Salem Area’s 15th Annual National Day of Prayer Gathering Thursday in the gymnasium of the Salem Memorial Building.
If there was ever a time that the nation needed prayer, that time is now, Rev. Dan Hardy Jr. said, asking the Lord to pour out his love, his life and his liberty upon the United States.
“We need what only He can provide,” Hardy said.
The president of Allegheny Wesleyan College in Salem, Hardy serves on the committee for the event and offered the welcome and opening prayer.
