BATON
ROUGE, La., Jan. 4, 2025
/PRNewswire/ -- This Sunday evening at 6:00
p.m. CT, Louisiana Governor
Jeff Landry and Family Research
Council President Tony Perkins, a
Louisiana resident and former
state representative, will hold a one-hour broadcast "Pray for the
Nation" in response to the terrorist attack in New Orleans. Christian leaders including
Pastor Carter Conlon, Pastor
Jack Hibbs, Michele Bachmann, Dr. David Goza, Troy
Miller, and Pastor Art Reyes
will also be a part of the prayer event. Mike Clark, a chaplain with the Billy Graham
Evangelistic Association who has been in New Orleans ministering to those affected by
the attack, will join the broadcast to pray.
Louisiana Governor Jeff Landry: "The terrorist attack on New Year's
morning is a tragic reminder of the evil in this world that seeks
to steal, kill, and destroy. We are thankful for the men and women
in uniform who protect us; please join us in praying for their
safety and their ability to thwart these heinous acts of terror. We
also lift up the victims of this attack and their families."
Family Research Council President Tony
Perkins: "America must pray! We need God's protective hand
upon our cities and our nation. Having worked in law enforcement
and anti-terrorism, I know the difficulty of confronting an
ideology determined to kill and destroy. As the Psalmist wrote in
Psalm 127, which Benjamin Franklin
quoted at the Constitutional Convention, 'Unless the Lord builds
the house, they labor in vain who build it; unless the Lord guards
the city, the watchman stays awake in vain.' Pray that our nation
turns to the Lord so He may guard our cities and our country."
