Two hundred yeais ago, on June 12, 1775, the Secand Conti- nenta.l Congress called upon the inhabitants of all the Colonies to unite, on a designated Thuisday in July,in"humiliauon,fasting,and prayer." This was our first national day of prayer. Americans on that day were asked to address their prayeis to the "Great Governor of the World" to preserve their new Union and secure civil and religious liberties. Those first pra.yers were answered in fuli ineascr�.Tt�.e LTni�n s�n:�•es. T'he liberties for which our forefathers prayed were never so secure as . they are today. But material progre.cs and human achievement often beckon mankind away from the spiritual virtues. As we prepare to mark the 200th anniversary of the birth of our • NaUon,it is my fervent hope that Americans will not forget that it was prayer that helped to forge our freedoms and foster our liberties. Let us now pray—as we have done thmughout our history, and as the Congress has requested (66 Stat. 64)—for the wisdom to continue the American pilg�image, striving toward a nobler eacistence for all ( humanity. Let us ask for the strength to meet the challenges that face our Nation.Let us give thanks to God for the many blessings granted to � America throughout these two centuries. And let us express the hope that our lives may continue to be enriched by the grace of our l�faker. NOW, THEREFORE, I, GERALD R. FORD, President of the � United States of America,do hereby prociaim Thi�rsday,July 24, 1975, as National Day of Prayer, 1975. ,�� I call upon all Americans to pray that day,each after his or her own � �� manner and convictions,for unity and the blessings of Fmedom through- � !,'S�., out our land and for peace on earth. � IN WITi�iF.SS`tiHF.REOF,I have hereunto set my hand this twelfth I i� day of June,in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred seventy-five, and i �� of the Independence of the linited States of America the one hundred + �� ninety-ninLh. ; I � � �� ' I� f � � i � i�;' _ I� . . . . . . � . � . . . � . . � . .
