Bentonville Prays
If my people who are called by my name humble themselves, and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land.
2 Chronicles 7:14
When you gather together to pray, something special happens.
There’s a feeling of unity and peace, as you join your voices together in petitioning God for His mercy and grace. And on the National Day of Prayer, that feeling is magnified as Christians across the country come together to intercede for our nation.
Join us on May 4th, 2023 as we take part in this nationwide event. Let’s come together and lift up our community in prayer!
