National Day of Prayer observed at Lake Point

The National Day of Prayer was observed on May 4, at Lake Point Community Church in Eatonton.

This marked the 71st anniversary for the nationwide event and represented the third time for Greene and Putnam counties to join in prayer.

Seven multi-denominational pastors from both counties gathered to recite individual prayers asking God to heal our nation’s, state’s and counties’ problems and to continue to bless our wonderful country.

Each pastor wrote and delivered his or her own prayer in what is the biggest local ecumenical gathering to celebrate the National Day of Prayer.

Each prayer was heartfelt, moving and meaningful, asking God to deliver our country from the turmoil and divisiveness that plagues it these days.
