Pastor Denied Permit to Hold National Day of Prayer Event at the U.S. Capitol Building
(Worthy News) – This year’s National Day of Prayer event at the U.S. Capitol appears to have been canceled after one evangelical leader was denied a permit to hold the prayer gathering at the building.
Since rioters breach the U.S. Capitol building on Jan. 6, leaving five people dead and at least one injured, the building has been closed to the public.
The Rev. Patrick Mahoney, director of the Christian Defense Coalition, contended that “free speech is in danger today” in America after his request to hold this year’s National Day of Prayer at the Capitol building on Thursday, May 6, 2021, was denied. [ Source: Christian Headlines (Read More…) ]
After our permit was denied, for the first time in 70 years, there will be NO PUBLIC witness at the U.S. Capitol Building for the National Day Of Prayer! Brothers and sisters, free speech is in danger today in America. #ProtectFreeSpeech #ReligiousFreedom @mschlapp #USCapitol pic.twitter.com/iQlgRCa90g
