Eunice observes National Day of Prayer

The 2017 National Day of Prayer was held Thursday evening at the Liberty Theater.
This year’s theme “For Your Great Name’s Sake,” based on scripture from Daniel 9:19, “Hear us...forgive us...heal us,” brought the community together in prayer.
Some local civic and church ministers led prayers for our nation, families, to end abortion, schools and teachers, churches, prayer to stop racism, the community, policemen, firefighters, first responders, and a prayer for neglecting intimacy with God.
Worship songs were sung by Judge Terry and Angie Hoychick, “Amazing Grace,” and “God Bless America.”
Local ministers lifted up a prayer over Eunice Mayor Scott Fontenot.
