Your Year End Giving Will Have Huge Impact on February 4.

In late 2022, I sensed God was nudging me to launch a new event. I called our good friend Pam Pryor, formerly the Senior Bureau Official for International Organization Affairs with the US State Department, who previously led the original Trump Faith Advisory Board during the 2016 election, and a friend to Well Versed. I called Mike Farris, the attorney who led the amazing Alliance Defending Freedom organization. I shared my thoughts. They said, “Go for it.”

I called Congressman Mike Johnson (before he became Speaker of the House). He responded affirmatively with one word repeated three times, “Repentance, Repentance, Repentance.”

I called Tony Perkins who leads the Family Research Council. He said, “Let’s do it.” We discussed various names. He recommended the “National Gathering for Prayer and Repentance.” That was late 2022. We had little time to prepare for the February 2023 event.
 
The is not your traditional “prayer breakfast” which can be all breakfast and no prayer. Ours is all prayer and no breakfast. And it begins as early as 7am or 6:30am, so you really have to want to come to it. 
 
Members of Congress came, ones that were truly born again. Nationally known faith leaders came. But all came in the spirit of humility before God. There was no “grandstanding.” 
 
Persons on the stage had/have only one minute. They pray. They do not talk to the audience. No speeches. They talk to God. They pray. They pray prayers of repentance, either for personal sins, sin in the church (if they are a faith leader or pastor), or America’s national sins (if they are an elected official). Interwoven among the prayers is deep worship. Allow me to summarize: God shows up.

The first National Gathering for Prayer and Repentance was remarkable. God blessed it.

The second annual National Gathering for Prayer and Repentance occurred February 2024. This year we added internationals. We had former Prime Ministers and Members of Parliament from across Europe.

The second and third years included an add-on at the end, a focus on Israel.

In addition to the early morning prayer event was a night-before reception at the Capitol Hill Club located a block from the US Capital Building. 
 
And (this is where you come in), it is happening again. It is costly to do this event. To be candid, it cost nearly $200,000. (Events in cities like DC are profoundly costly.) Given the effort and costs, why do we do it? We believe that America, that is Americans, need to repent before a holy and righteous God. Candidly, given the egregious immorality, we deserve judgment. And it still might come in unimaginable ways. But like Abraham who sought for 10 righteous in Sodom, we seek those who will “stand in the gap” for this nation. 
 
Will you help cover the cost of the National Gathering for Prayer and Repentance by your year end giving? We so appreciate you help on this.

Allow me to share, for those who might be able to make a larger donation, as a Founding Member of the National Gathering for Prayer and Repentance, of $25,000, there is a special private reception with some top government leaders. If you are able to be one of those, contact me at Info@WellVersedWorld.org
 
But let me be quick to add, every gift of ANY AMOUNT is welcomed and deeply appreciated. Every amount makes a difference. 
 
Allow me to thank you in advance. I am profoundly grateful for anything you might be able to do for this repentance event.
