“We are honored and blessed to have the President of the United States join Pray.com’s National Day of Prayer event with a pre-recorded message to help strengthen and unify our nation as we work to defeat this global Pandemic. We are humbled to take part in this unifying moment in our nation’s history, that will include the President and several national political leaders who are coming together to join millions of people from all backgrounds to ask God to bring hope, healing, and health to all our communities.” said Pray.com Co-founder Steve Gatena.
As the No. 1 app for daily prayer and faith-based audio content, Pray.com helps individuals make prayer a priority, emphasizing the power of prayer to bring about change. This is especially important during this difficult time in our nation’s history, when so many people are struggling with mental health, stress and anxiety. Multiple studies have shown that prayer has a positive effect on mental health, and Pray.com seeks to make that message clear during the National Day of Prayer.
In addition to President Biden, participants in this year’s event include other national political leaders and pastors such as Greg Laurie, Ronnie Floyd, Sam Collier, Dr. Ed Young Sr., Skip Heitzig and Samuel Rodriguez. Celebrities such as Heather Headley and Cynthia Garrett will share what prayer means to them, while leading in prayer for specific needs. Christian artists including Hillsong’s Brooke Ligertwood, Lecrae and Michael Neale will perform some of their newest worship music. In addition, high-profile speakers and authors such as Nona Jones and Pray.com founders Gatena, Michael Lynn, Ryan Beck and Matthew Potter will join the event to help make prayer a priority at a time when the nation is in need of unity and healing.
The programming is part of a full day of events focused on prayer that will be broadcast live on Thursday, May 6, with the main event airing at 4 p.m. PDT/7 p.m. EDT. It will be broadcast on Pray.com, SiriusXM channel 154, Direct TV, Audacy and multiple Facebook groups.
