Bill > SR227

This resolution designates May 7, 2026, as "The Day of Prayer and Fasting" in Pennsylvania, a day intended for individuals of all faiths and those who value quiet reflection to engage in prayer, fasting, contemplation, and personal renewal. The resolution emphasizes Pennsylvania's founding principles of religious liberty and moral responsibility, drawing parallels to historical observances of prayer and fasting during times of national uncertainty, and acknowledges the existing national "Day of Prayer" established in 1952. It aims to encourage unity, humility, and goodwill among Pennsylvanians as they face contemporary challenges, and mandates that a copy of this resolution be sent to the Governor of Pennsylvania.
