We are thrilled to share the success of our recent National Day of Prayer event held on Thursday, May 2 at the Orchard Event Venue and Retreat. With over 200 people in attendance, the day was a testament to the power of unity and faith in Jesus Christ.

 

Dr. David Shaffer, Chairman of the National Day of Prayer Azle event, set the tone for the gathering by stating, “The music will be inspiring, the message will be encouraging, the prayers will be hopeful, and the food will be OK.” Those present were not disappointed. The voices of the Azle High School Chorale and Catherine Carlson added a level of inspiration, while keynote speaker Roger Jackson’s message was both encouraging and challenging. The prayers for national leaders and groups, down to our own local leaders and groups, provided hope for the future, and the food surpassed all expectations.

 

The outpouring of support and participation was truly remarkable, and we are deeply grateful to everyone for their time, prayers and donations that helped make this Christian community event possible.

 

As we look ahead, mark your calendars for next year's event, which will be held on Thursday, May 1, 2025.
