In a heartfelt continuation of the National Day of Prayer, the North DeSoto community is invited to gather for a Community Night of Prayer on Wednesday, May 7 at 6 PM at North DeSoto Upper Elementary.

Organizers are calling on residents from across DeSoto Parish to join in an evening of unity and faith, as local leaders, families, and students come together to pray for critical areas of community life. The evening will feature prayers for local and national government, students and educators, law enforcement, first responders, and more.

The event will be led by Fellowship of Christian Athletes (FCA) leaders of all ages, who will guide participants through various themed “Prayer Stations” throughout the evening.

To kick off the evening, food trucks offering tacos, pizza, and ice cream will open at 5:10 PM, providing a chance for fellowship and food before the event begins.

Organizers emphasize that everyone is welcome, and hope the event serves as a powerful reminder of community support and shared purpose. A passage from Romans 15:13 — “Pour out to the God of hope and be filled” — sets the tone for what promises to be an inspiring evening.
