Houston – Reliant Stadium – Saturday, August 6

Attend this historic event! This is not a political event. It is a prayer event. No candidate will speak.

Dear Friend,

American Family Association is sponsoring The Response: a national call for prayer for a nation in crisis. AFA's goal is to fill the 62,000-seat Reliant Stadium on August 6.

AFA is encouraging Christians across the nation to join in a national day of prayer for our nation. Gov. Rick Perry of Texas has proclaimed Saturday, Aug. 6th, as a Day of Prayer and Fasting to seek God's guidance and wisdom in addressing the challenges that face our communities, states and nation. He has invited governors across the country to join him on Aug. 6 to participate in The Response, a non-denominational, apolitical, Christian prayer meeting hosted by the American Family Association at the 62,000-seat Reliant Stadium in Houston. Gov. Perry also urged fellow governors to issue similar proclamations encouraging their constituents to pray for unity and righteousness for our states, nation, and mankind on that day.

Gov. Sam Brownback of Kansas and Bobby Jindal of Louisiana have indicated that they plan to attend. Other governors are considering attending.

Can't go to Houston? Have a Response prayer event of your own. AFA is encouraging Christians to organize and promote a local Response prayer event in their churches and communities. We encourage local churches to organize the local event to suit their local conditions. In Houston, The Response will begin at 10:00 am and close at 5:00 pm. The will be no admission for the prayer event.

I am afraid that more folks say they realize the power of prayer than are relying upon that power.

Praise God for this, it is awesome to see that our governors are relying on God for the good of our nation. There is opposition, yes, but we can't let that discourage us. We need to unite and oppose Satan's plans of destruction. He is our enemy, not the Christians that seek God. God Bless the USA.
