President Donald Trump has no public events on his schedule today and is expected to remain in the White House with the first family. With the ongoing coronavirus outbreak and current recovery efforts, the president is likely to meet with national leaders and public officials regarding the needs of the coming week.
The president will also be preparing for Memorial Day ceremonies taking place tomorrow. Ahead of the holiday, the president said, “We will never take for granted the blood shed by these gallant men and women, as we are forever indebted to them and their families.” He continued, “As we commemorate these seminal events, we also remember the tremendous cost at which these victories came. More than 400,000 souls of the Greatest Generation perished during this titanic struggle to liberate the world from tyranny.”
He concluded by highlighting that Congress, in 1950, called “on the people of the United States to observe each Memorial Day as a day of prayer for permanent peace” and also designated “a period on that day when the people of the United States might unite in prayer.”
As the Lord Leads, Pray with Us…
- For encouragement and rest for the president and first family as they stay in the White House today.
- For God to be at work in the nation’s leaders as they work towards recovery from the outbreak.
- As Americans across the nation remember the legacy of those who sacrificed for our freedoms.
