The National Day of Prayer (36 U.S.C. § 119) is an annual day of observance held on the first Thursday of May designated by the United States Congress when people are asked to turn to God in prayer and meditation. Each year since its inception the president has signed a proclamation encouraging all Americans to pray on this day.
