Join us in prayer for our nation on Sunday, May 17, 2026

President Donald Trump has announced a special, National Day of Prayer on Sunday, May 17, 2026 at the National Mall in Washington D.C. The President and others have described this event as an opportunity to rededicate America to God, and a national jubilee of prayer, praise, and thanksgiving.

As a Christian, something I have prayed for daily for years is repentance, reformation, and revival in our land. It is something I desire deeply. As a patriotic American, I am excited and grateful to see a President in office making these pronouncements, and I'm eager to participate in this day of prayer, which is why I'll be traveling to Washington D.C. to participate in person.

The reason I'm telling you this, is because I recognize the very real power of prayer, and regardless of whether you're able to travel to D.C. or not, I'd love it if you would mark your calendar and plan to pray with me for our nation on May 17th.

The United States is a nation that has been abundantly blessed by God, but we have increasingly forgotten God. We are plagued with all kinds of evil: Abortion, crime, normalization of all kinds of sexual sin (including everything LGBTQ), laziness, and gluttony. We thought we could replace God with money, technology, luxury, and an ethical code based on consensus. And what has that gotten us?

Fatherlessness, low birth rates, violence, an eroding culture, and an increase of Islam, Leftism, and other destructive ideologies.

Our national leaders do have a responsibility to pursue policy to correct these growing problems, but the truth is that there's only one policy that will ultimately take our nation off of the destructive path we're on, and put us back on a path to the Golden Era that so many of us would love to see for our children. That policy is 2 Chronicles 7:14, which says, "if my people who are called by my name humble themselves, and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land."

We must repent, and humble ourselves before God.

So that's what I'm asking. This is something that all of us can and should do every day, but specifically I'm asking that on May 17th you:

  • Humble yourself and repent to God
  • Pray for national repentance, reformation, and revival
  • Pray that God heals our land of the evils that are overcoming it, and puts us on the path of righteousness
  • Pray for equal protection under the law for preborn babies across our nation
  • Pray that our people wake up to the sin we have normalized and accepted, and reject it
  • Pray for an age of prosperity, security, and peace (a PAX AMERICANA if you will) stemming from Godliness, righteousness, and faith
  • Pray for the wisdom, faithfulness, and righteousness of our national leaders, especially the President, his cabinet, the Supreme Court, Congress, and state government officials as well

This may seem like an odd request from a watch company, but I want you to know that the goal of our company is to glorify God. We are hopeful that this will encourage you to be bold and faithful in your walk, not just in your willingness to pray with us on May 17th, but in how you live your life to the glory of God every single day.

SOLI DEO GLORIA and PAX AMERICANA,

Paul Brown
CEO | Wasson Watch Co.
