This year marks America’s 250th anniversary, and in honor of this momentous occasion, Franklin Graham is calling for 50 days of prayer, culminating on July Fourth. 

“This is a critical moment in our history,” he said. “There is nothing more powerful that we can do for our country, our churches, and our families than to come together in prayer before God Almighty.”

Graham kicked off this national movement on May 15. For the following 50 days, church leaders from each state will lead a short prayer via video, asking God to move in our households, government, and society. Graham will conclude this special season of prayer, thanking God for how He has blessed the United States and seeking His mercy, direction, and provision as we celebrate our nation’s founding on the Fourth of July.

You can be a part of this initiative from wherever you are by visiting OneNationUnderGod.com. Together, let’s ask the Lord to work mightily in our country and draw many people to faith in Jesus Christ.

You can also follow along each day through our Billy Graham Evangelistic Association app. 

I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all people, for kings and all who are in high positions, that we may lead a peaceful and quiet life, godly and dignified in every way.
—1 Timothy 2:1–2, ESV
