HARLINGEN, Texas – The 62nd National Day of Prayer will take place on Thursday, May 2 from 7 to 8 p.m. in Yeckel Auditorium, located on the Marine Military Academy (MMA) campus in Harlingen. People of all faiths are invited to participate in this free, community-wide assembly.

The purpose of the National Day of Prayer is to encourage personal repentance and righteousness in the culture and mobilize the community to intercede for its city, state and nation and its leadership in the seven centers of power: government, military, media, business, education, church and family.

At the event, nine different community leaders will lead the audience in united prayer. Live praise music will also be played to inspire joy, hope and revival.
