WASHINGTON, D.C. — Mark J. Brown Sr. is playing a central role in the National Rededication of America: A Jubilee of Prayer, Praise, and Thanksgiving, scheduled for May 17, 2026. The event brings together pastors, ministry leaders, and faith-based networks from across the United States. “Celebrating the Triumph of the American Spirit”
This gathering marks a historical moment tied to the Nation’s founding. In 1776, the Continental Congress called the people to prayer, humility, and dependence on God in a time of uncertainty and decision. Nearly 250 years later, Americans are once again being called to reflect, give thanks, and consider the responsibility of carrying forward the principles on which the Nation was built.
