Thursday, July 2

President Donald Trump is giving an interview to a major media outlet this afternoon. The president is expected to address the status of the Iran peace talks, the U.S. economy and employment, as well as the midterm election outlook.

The state of South Dakota, the National Park Service, and Black Hills National Forest announced the closure of Mount Rushmore National Memorial today as agencies and officials prepare for the Freedom 250 fireworks display. Only ticket holders will be admitted to the fireworks celebration on July 3rd.

Federal, state, and local agencies are coordinating with the fireworks contractor on event preparation, traffic management, public safety, and environmental protection. Mount Rushmore will reopen to the public on July 4.

As the Lord Leads, Pray with Us…

  • For President Trump to seek the Lord’s guidance as he sets foreign and domestic policies.
  • For federal, state, and local officials as they prepare for semiquincentennial celebrations across the nation.
  • For Americans to glorify God and be grateful for His grace and blessings upon the U.S. these 250 years.
