President Trump has called Americans to come together to rededicate our country to God as we mark the 250th anniversary of the United States.
A solemn prayer ceremony will be held on the National Mall on Sunday, May 17th, exactly 250 years after the Second Continental Congress called Americans to a pivotal day of repentance. Their resolution urged American colonists to:
* “confess and bewail our manifold sins and transgressions”;
* rely on “the merits and mediation of Jesus Christ” for forgiveness;
* “acknowledge the over ruling providence of God”;
* ask for “the Lord of Hosts, the God of Armies” to grant victory to American forces.
