Thousands Gather In D.C. For 'America's Tent Of Meeting' Prayer Event
Tens of thousands of Christians are expected to descend on the National Mall in Washington, D.C. this weekend to seek God for the nation. "America's Tent of Meeting" is sponsored by Awaken the Dawn and will be held in 58 large tents, one for each American state. Worship and prayer will be central to the occasion.
"We really just want to gather around the work of Jesus and the presence of God," said David Bradshaw in a phone interview Tuesday with The Christian Post. The goal is "to throw a public, audacious, bold, visible celebration of Jesus' worth," he continued.
"We believe that, as the Psalms say, God inhabits the praises of His people. And in the midst of the bold, costly celebration of Jesus at the center of our nation that He is going to move in power and bring transformation and change and dwell in the midst of the praises of His people."
