Jessup University invites you to attend our prayer breakfast in honor of the 74^th Annual National Day of Prayer on Thursday, May 1, 2025, beginning at 8:00 a.m.

This year’s theme, Pour Out to The God of Hope and Be Filled, promises an opportunity for worship and spiritual refreshment led by engaging keynote speakers, Francis Chan and Dr. John Jackson.

Attendees will have the opportunity to prayerfully intercede alongside regional Prayer Warriors in their respective professions or spheres of influence, including business, churches, education, families, government, media, and law enforcement and the military. Register here to participate in our cherished university tradition as our country gathers together to cover our nation in prayer.

The National Day of Prayer was created in 1952 when President Harry S. Truman signed a joint resolution of Congress into law. In 1988, President Ronald Reagan signed a law declaring that the first Thursday in May would be designated as the National Day of Prayer each year.
