National Day of Prayer event to be held at National Monument to the Forefathers

PLYMOUTH — Two nationally known speakers will participate in the observance of the National Day of Prayer event to be held at National Monument to the Forefathers on Thursday, May 5 from 4–7 p.m.

The National Day of Prayer is an annual day of observance held on the first Thursday of May, designated by congress and encourages Americans to turn to God. Many Americans assemble in prayer in front of courthouses, as well as in houses of worship, such as churches, mosques, synagogues, and temples.

Among the speakers will be Mark Meckler, president of Convention of States Foundation & Convention of States Action with over five million supporters and activists, representing every state legislative district in the nation. 

The second nationally recognized speaker is Rick Green, a former Texas State Representative, national speaker, author, and radio host. Rick and his family travel the nation speaking on America’s forgotten history and heroes, with an emphasis on our moral, religious and constitutional heritage. 

Local religious leaders, color guard and church worship bands will also contribute to the Day of Prayer event.
