NATIONAL DAY OF PRAYER May 1, 2003
New Jersey Mayoral Proclamations
"Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is a disgrace to any people"
If you live in New Jersey please check here to see if your mayor/municipality has issued a proclamation for a day of prayer on the first Thursday of May this year, our nation's "National Day of Prayer."
I need your help to encourage mayors to issue proclamations! We mailed letters to ALL 567 NJ mayors on April 8, 2003, so remind your mayor to do this. Thanks so much!
If your municipality is NOT listed here we have no record of any ever being issued. A letter or phone call from you will help! Click HERE for help in writing a letter to your mayor asking him or her to issue one, then please send a copy to Lift Up USA so we can add it this year! Thanks so much.
If you view this list and don't see your municipality listed and your mayor HAS issued a proclamation please let us know by e-mail. Thanks so much!
Since 1993, when we first sent our letters to NJ mayors urging them to issue proclamations, we have received affirmative responses from municipalities listed below.
Current municipalities are in bold type:
5/21/03 total = 218 of NJ's 567 so far! Only 349 to go! Get involved in this project. YOU HAVE MADE THE DIFFERENCE! Thank you, mayors, councils, and coordinators!

Thanks!
If your mayor has issued a proclamation and it is not listed here, please let us know. If not, ask your mayor for one, and let us know when he or she has issued it. Please be faithful in
praying for your mayor and local civic officials daily. Remind others such as your pastor and church congregation to do so as well. May God bless, protect, guide, and provide every good thing for the honorable public servants we have chosen!
