National Day of Prayer Observed Yesterday

The National Day Of Prayer was observed yesterday at noon. The service was moved inside to the courtroom of the historic Stephens County Courthouse due to potential bad weather.

The service was sponsored by the Fellowship of Christian Athletes at Stephens County High School. Michaela Priatko of the FCA Leadership Team prayed for our military.

“God I praise you and thank you for bringing us hear safely. We would not be here with those fighting for our country,” said Priatko. “We especially pray for the families with loved ones overseas.”

Fellow student Brian Roach prayed for the community and leaders.

”I pray that you allow this community to grow through you and pray that you bless our leaders not only in Toccoa and our state of Georgia and fill our hearts and spirits to grow with you,” said Roach. 

This year’s National Day of Prayer theme is “ For Your Great Name’s Sake! Hear Us…Forgive Us…Heal Us!”
