Final preparations underway for National Day of Prayer

Final preparations are now being put in place for tomorrow’s National Day of Prayer.

The Cabinet made the decision late last month.

It will be observed annually on the second Thursday of September. To preserve the sanctity of the observance, Cabinet also approved a ban on the sale and consumption of alcohol on that day, from 6:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.

The day begins at 6:00 am with prayer services across all congregations, followed by media devotions and prayers every half hour from 8:00 am to 10:00 am.
