Christians to Gather in Philadelphia to Pray for Nation’s Healing
Julie Shutley : Mar 1, 2012 : America for Jesus 2012
(Nashville, TN)—America for Jesus 2012, a gathering of Christians representing all races, parties and denominations, will gather in a solemn assembly on Independence Mall in Philadelphia, Sept. 28-29, to pray for the healing of our nation and its people 40 days before America casts its vote for President, it was announced Sunday at the National Religious Broadcasters Association Convention in Nashville, TN.
“America’s soul is sick, but I believe America still has a chance; I believe in resurrection, and I believe prayer changes things—and that is what we intend to do,” said Bishop Anne Gimenez, pastor of Rock Church International in Virginia Beach, Va., and chairman of America for Jesus 2012. “It’s not about who will be in the White House nor our current financial crisis, it’s about America needing the presence of God.”
America for Jesus 2012 is being organized by One Nation Under God, a coalition of ministries that sponsored the watershed Washington for Jesus events in the 80s and 90s, which focused on prayer, repentance and revival, based on God’s promises found in 2 Chronicles 7:14.
To-date, the five national and numerous regional rallies attended by several hundred thousand people have made significant impact affecting millions across the country and the national movement continues to call for a return to Biblical values rather than endorsing any particular party or candidate.
