Flemington - 5:00 pm - 7:00 pm - The Old Courthouse, Main St., Flemington - Contact: Laurie Wong at 908-806-4533 or at LW3700@aol.com
Our NDP observance last night in Flemington went really well. We had
the greatest unity yet and our attendees (flowing between 50-75 in
number) all seemed to be in one accord. There wasn't the usual coming
and going and other activity. Switching the location back to the
historic courthouse was a very good thing. The only "upset" was upon
arrival we found that the top platform of the steps had been jack
hammered by construction crews the day before eliminating our platform.
Ooops was the response of the officials.... So we set up on the sidewalk
and used it as a prophetic declaration for Ps. 11. If the foundations
crumble, what will the Righteous do?" Turn to God like Samuel as God
called him in an apostate world.
Turn to God Hunterdon County/NJ/America! and God will honor you!
When we began setting up at the Court House, I felt the Holy Spirit
prompting me that we needed special prayer for our troops and it would
be significant to have a parent of someone who was serving to pray. I
asked Him to send someone in the crowd as I didn't know of anyone that
was coming.
AS the band began to warm up, a man in a green jeep drove by, slowed
and asked what we were doing. He did a U turn and parked all excited
and said that he had no idea that anything like this was done in
America. I explained it all to him and then he (JIm) told me that both
his sons were in the service, one to be deployed to Iraq in the next
few weeks and May 4th was the anniversary the commissioning he received
right down the road from where we stood. Every time JIm drives down
Main St., he prays for the troops. So I asked him to stand with us
and pray. It was both moving and powerful.
God is awesome!
**Trenton - Friday, May 5th - 12 noon - hosted by Prayer Ministries of NJ, led by Laurie Wong of Women's Aglow - State House, Annex - Committee Rm. 1 - Contact: Patricia Wenzel at 1-888-NJ PRAYER or patricia@praynj.org Lorie and Elizabeth confessed before the Lord "no agenda but His own". They started the time with about a dozen intercessors in worship inviting the Holy Spirit's presence. After about 40 minutes of corporate prayer for our state and nation, Laurie asked if any statehouse workers were present and wished to have prayer. Several came forward and the anointing and presence of the Lord was very strong as we corporately prayed for them and several gave prophetic words. At about this point a single woman entered the room to join us. It was well after 12:30 so I figured the Senator hadn't been able to join us. She asked for special prayer and we all prayed for her requested prayer for the legislature. At one point God impressed me that she was a lady mantled with His grace and authority and perhaps did she know the authority she held with God, not to mention man? Well, after the prayer, I asked her name and discovered it was indeed a state Senator. I warmly hugged her and we all expressed delight and honor that she had joined us... God is sooo good. I felt that He allowed her identity to be hidden from me so I wouldn't be intimidated and His grace and love could naturally pour forth to her. I feel that all were blessed by the day and God was honored. He surely honored me. Edison - 12:00 noon - Municipal Building flagpole, Rt. 27 - Contact: Pastor Scott Walsh, Abundant Life Christian Church
About 30 men, women and several children prayed at Edison New Jersey

We at House of Hope were blessed of the Lord to have 25 humble prayers
in attendence at the National Day of Prayer. Our hearts were attuned to
standing in the gap for our Nation.
We praised our God with exhuberance and began to sing songs of deliverence
over our Nation which brought the presence of God into the sanctuary. A
prophetic song then came forth calling the nation into its rightful place. We
wept over the leaders of the Nation as we called out each one of their names
and asked God to give them wisdom, guidance and strength to fulfil their
important roles. We asked for forgiveness for the way those in our Nation
have laughed and mocked our God and openly rebelled against Him and His word.
We know that His word will not return void and we were honored to participate
with all others around this great Nation and for the release of multiplied
angelic activity that was sent forth on behalf of all the prayers of the
saints of God.

Center, 176 Rt. 79 There was a fine turnout of 40-50 persons Thursday, May 4, at the Cultural Center for our nation's 55th annual National Day of Prayer observance. This year's theme was "America, Honor God," and the scriptural basis for this was taken from 1 Samuel 2:30, �?Those who honor me I will honor?.� Dr. Marie Martin led us in the singing during the event. After the Invocation and Pledge of Allegiance, remarks about America�s National Day of Prayer were read by Joan Schaefer, vice-president of the Catholic Society and we sang �America the Beautiful�. After Mayor Pucci�s �Day of Prayer Proclamation� was read by Carol Donovan, a responsive reading of praise and �The Lord�s Prayer� was led by Dorothy Kopil, president of The Catholic Society. Walt Donovan read a thought provoking prayer of repentance that was offered by a Rev. Joe Wright at a meeting of the Kansas House of Representatives in 1996. Don Winchell, assistant leader of the Protestant Fellowship, read Psalm 51, after which we sang �Amazing Grace.� Prayer was offered for America and its leaders, and before the benediction, Dr. Marie Martin led us in "God Bless America," invoking God's grace upon our nation.

finished with God Bless America.
What beautiful weather the Lord sent us! I wish that every town would
participate and that more people were aware of the National Day of
Prayer. The local papers carried our notification and I distributed
some flyers from the NDP group. I'm not sure if our location was
carried in your newspaper notification. If not, I will again try to be
earlier next year.

people were touched. I also had people from the audience come up and
pray for a need senior veterans were there it was awesome I had a 87

In the courthouse I was surprised to see
this huge round pillar in the middle of the building. It had a border
around the top of leaves, but to me it looked like fire. I prayed
that God’s pillar of fire would be with us that night.

There was a very large painting done by
Ron Lehew the town crier hanging on the wall that prophetic declared:
“ Our past is our future.” This went along with the history of the
courthouse and how we can call on the anointings of the past and also
the fresh anointings of the future for our community. Former and

Through this experience I was able to again emphasize each senior
resident's power of influence through prayer. (I now lead worship in
Building One on Thursdays..can't believe I'm in my 4th year of this
ministry already.) It's such a blessing to empower them through the
Word of God and give them a message of HOPE....that our Father is not

decided to hold a NDP service....what a blessing.
