Easter is over. What did Easter mean to you this year? New clothes, chocolate bunnies and Easter eggs?

Has the story of how Jesus suffered and died for you already faded from your thoughts, to be replaced with everyday concerns? God said in 2 Chronicles 7:14, “If My people, who are called by My name, will humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sins and heal their land.”

Do you agree that our land needs healing and forgiveness? Anger, frustration, bitterness and despair are signs that this land is crying out for that healing hand of the Lord and it is time for His people to get serious about humbling themselves in prayer.

Thursday, May 4, is the annual National Day of Prayer and what better time to join with believers all across the USA as they come together in homes, churches and groups to pray?

The National Day of Prayer committee of Fountain Hills will again be holding their annual event at Fountain Park. Complimentary food and beverages will be served from 5 to 5:45p.m. Then, at 6p.m., there will be a one-hour prayer service led by pastors of the Fountain Hills Christian Ministerial Association. Mark your calendars now and make every effort to attend. God is waiting for us to return.
