Not sure where to start? Here is the prayer guide featured on my county's National Day of Prayer website.

- confess our sinfulness
- seek His direction

Ask God to help them:
- stand strong in their convictions
- be bold in their witness

PRAYER FOR THE IMPRISONED AND PERSECUTED
Ask God to help them:
- endure their hardships

Thanks, LA.
Have a blessed and prayerful day -- each and every day.
We can never have too many reminders of our need to pray and to pray without ceasing. Mickey & I will be joining other in our City in praying together at 12 noon at the fire station.
