HUTCHINSON, Kan. — The National Day of Prayer, Pray God's Glory Across the Earth event scheduled for May 7 at DCI Park in Hutchinson has been canceled because of coronavirus. Organizers ask that you pray at home for your community, state, nation and world.

The National Day of Prayer 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." The president is required by law to sign a proclamation each year encouraging all Americans to pray on this day.
