National Jubilee of Prayer, Praise & Thanksgiving
🗓 Sunday, May 17, 2026
📍 National Mall, Washington D.C.
On February 5, 2026, President Donald J. Trump spoke at the 74th annual National Prayer Breakfast in Washington, D.C.:
“Prayers strengthen, prayers heal, prayer empowers, and prayer saves. Quite simply, prayer is America’s superpower.”
"On May 17, 2026, we are inviting Americans from all across the country to come together on our National Mall to pray, to give thanks, and to rededicate America as one nation under God.”
Freedom 250 Invites All Americans to Come Together in Prayer and Worship Ahead of the Nation’s 250th Birthday celebrating the Triumph of the American Spirit.
250 years ago, America chose freedom. This year, we celebrate this historic moment in every city, every town, every stretch of American road.
The National Mall will be the scene of a historic gathering as Americans prepare for the nation’s 250th birthday with Scripture, testimony, prayer, and rededication of our country as One Nation to God. From morning fellowship in front of the U.S. Capitol to an evening filled with music anchored at the main stage on 12th Street, Rededicate 250 will be rooted in giving thanks for God’s presence in our national life throughout 250 years of American history and asking for his guidance for the next 250.
