Do you, or someone you know, live on the Big Island? Please join Concerned Women for America (CWA) of Hawaii in Hilo on May 2, for our National Day of Prayer event.
This year’s theme is Love One Another. National Day of Prayer President, Dr. Ronnie Floyd, said this about this year’s theme, “The vast majority of America understands America is broken. And they understand that God is the only one who can fix it. We have an opportunity to create a theme that will engage all Americans. The theme must be biblical, relevant, clear, simple, and understandable. ‘Love One Another’ accomplishes those five things. From the church house to the state house and all the way to the White House, we need to learn to love one another.”
It is time to call down the powers of heaven upon both Hawaii and the nation.
We will be praying for our state, our nation, and our president, Donald J. Trump, along with his cabinet members and White House staff. We will be praying for Gov. David Y. Ige, Lt. Gov. Josh Green, Hawaii Attorney General Clare E. Connors, our state representatives and senators, and our County Mayor Harry Kim.

Background on the National Day of Prayer
The National Day of Prayer was created in 1952 by a joint resolution of Congress and signed into law by President Harry S. Truman. In 1988, the law was unanimously amended by both the House and Senate to designate the first Thursday of May as a day of national prayer. President Ronald Reagan signed it into law on Thursday, May 5, 1988.
Every president since 1952 has signed a National Day of Prayer proclamation.
