The Story of the National Prayer Network

During times of crisis, such as the Revolutionary and Civil Wars, America and the presidency were receptive to the idea of a national day dedicated to nothing but fasting and prayer. They recognized that divine intervention, in response to the repentance of the nation, is always crucial to America's survival.

In 1979, Rev. Claude Pike, a pastor and politically conservative radio commentator, read an article by Richard Viguery, editor of Conservative Digest, calling for a return to a national day of fasting and prayer. Amazed that such an opportunity to uplift the nation could have been neglected, Rev. Pike conceived a bold plan to publicize the need for such a day. Being pilots, Rev. Pike and his two sons, John and Ted, during the summer of 1980, flew their ancient 1929 Bellanca monoplane (the same type that first flew the Pacific in 1931) in an aerial tour around America. From Portland, Oregon, they visited towns spanning Nebraska, Michigan, Kentucky, Texas, New Mexico, and California. They pulled a huge aerial banner across the skies, proclaiming "Pray for America." A powerful loud speaker, directed downward from the aircraft, boomed out "Pray for America!" above U. S. cities.
