Twenty-five years ago today, The Presidential Prayer Team officially began.
The news had gone out the day before. Six days after September 11, the country was still looking for answers. What we offered was a place to pray. Months earlier, a few faithful men had already been prompted—through prayer and 1 Timothy 2:1–2—to prepare a way for the nation to lift up the President and those in authority. When the call came that Thursday to have a website ready by Monday for as many as 20 million visitors, engineers in five states worked 72 hours without stopping. On September 18 the door opened. People came by the tens of thousands an hour.
We are Grateful for the Faithful—for those first watchmen, and for you.
[Our Online Town Hall is NOW OPEN ] through Sunday, September 20. Members in all 50 states are invited to give thanks for 25 years of prayer:
Thank you for praying with us today. Here is your Daily Prayer Briefing.
