Petition Action

Declare a national day of prayer for an end to the corona virus

Petition Details

Set a date for a national day of prayer and encourage everyone to pray for divine help during this time of crisis and for the effects of the virus to be kept low

Additional Information

In past national emergencies governments would acknowledge that the wisdom of man was sometimes not enough to prevail and that it was right and proper to ask for the people of the county to pray to God for help. I believe this is such an emergency and it would be a sign of strength to take such a step
