PARKERSBURG, W.Va. — Pastors and parishioners gathered in Wood and Washington counties Thursday morning to ask God’s blessing on local residents, government, the state and the nation.
They were joined by believers around the country on the annual National Day of Prayer.
Twenty-one people encircled the flag pole at the Vienna City Building.
“We are so blessed in our lives, not only here in Vienna, but in the United States,” Vienna Mayor Randy Rapp said after the ceremony. “I think it’s our duty to pray and say thank you and acknowledge the gifts we are given.”
