2 Corinthians 3:17 NKJV âNow the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.â
Americans from all walks of life will gather on May 6 to lift up our country in prayer for the National Day of Prayer. Our nation has endured a year marked by tragedy and pain, but we know prayer has carried us through these days and the hand of God will move us into a brighter future.
Those in Pontotoc will gather Thursday, beginning at 12 noon in front of City Hall for a service of prayer and praise.
This year marks 70 years since Reverend Billy Graham stood on the capitol steps in February 1952 and called for congress and the president to establish a day of prayer. By April of that year, President Truman signed the legislation into public law.

(RNS) In 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic prompted many observances of the annual National Day of Prayer to go virtual, with a focus on praying for those who were sickened or died.
A year later, as the 70th observance occurs on Thursday (May 6), pandemic prayers continue and, in some cases, are being coupled with petitions for racial justice.
