America Prays 250
is a nationwide call to prayer on Saturday, July 4, 2026, the 250th anniversary of the United States. The vision is simple and powerful: believers across America gathering for one united hour of prayer at 9:00 AM in each time zone, creating a wave of prayer that moves across the nation from east to west. Nationally, this has been described as the largest prayer endeavor in the history of the Assemblies of God, with a goal of mobilizing 300,000 people to pray for spiritual awakening, for the Church, and for the nation.
In the Southern New England Ministry Network, we are embracing this moment with a broader and more direct call. Rather than asking people to gather only at a few regional sites, we are calling every church, every pastor, and every congregation across Southern New England to participate in this united hour of prayer from 9:00 to 10:00 AM. Our conviction is that this moment is too important for only a few churches to respond. We believe God is calling the whole Church to pray.
Churches may host this hour in person, by Zoom, or in a hybrid format, making it accessible and doable for congregations of every size. And our hope is that this will be more than a one-hour event. We are believing that this prayer moment can become a prayer movement that strengthens churches, rekindles corporate prayer, and fuels evangelistic momentum across our region.
Before we celebrate the nation, let us consecrate the day.
Every church. Every pastor. One hour.
