In 1988, President Ronald Reagan signed a bill making the first Thursday of May a National Day of Prayer.
On our National Day of Prayer, then, we joined together as people of many faiths to petition God to show us his mercy and His love, to heal our weariness and uphold our hope, that we might live ever mindful of his justice and thankful for His blessing.
—Ronald Reagan
