Summary

The White House has launched America Prays, a nationwide initiative calling on Americans to dedicate time each week to pray for the nation as we prepare to celebrate America’s 250th anniversary in 2026. President Trump is inviting faith communities, families, and individuals to commit to one hour of prayer per week, with the ambitious goal of mobilizing 1 million Americans in unified prayer. This effort draws on America’s founding heritage, reminding us that this nation has always been sustained and strengthened by prayer. Participants are encouraged to gather in groups of at least 10 people using powerful Scriptures like 2 Chronicles 7:14 to pray for leaders, families, freedom, and national renewal.
