Join us throughout Election Week (November 4-8) as we pray for the United States. Together we'll reflect on quotes from our Founding Fathers, and we'll meditate on the words of Sacred Scripture. Each day Neal McDonough will emcee, and our guests – Fr. Josh Johnson, Katie McGrady, Sr. Norma Pimentel, Montse Alvarado, and Fr. Dave Pivonka – will lead us in prayer as we seek to grow in unity as one nation under God. (Each day, you may also select the option to hear our prayer guides lead the session in its entirety.)
