Local Church To Be National Day of Prayer Site

St. John Lutheran Church located at 7214 South Cass Avenue in Darien, Illinois is a registered site for the National Day of Prayer which occurs this year on Thursday, May 2, 2019. The National Day of Prayer has become an observance across the nation which calls Americans from all socio-economic, political and ethnic backgrounds to unite in prayer.

The church will host a Prayer Vigil from 9:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. The sanctuary will be open to the public for those who wish to come in and pray. Guests can also write their prayer requests and place them on crosses so others will pray for them. In addition to personal petitions, the National Day of Prayer encourages citizens to lift up our government, military, emergency personnel, media, businesses, educational institutions, churches, and family units in prayer. The day will culminate with a Prayer Service at 7:00 p.m. The theme will be "Love One Another" based on John 13:34.
