2024 Election Day Prayers and Prayer Vigil Service

The national ministries of the UCC is planning a time of prayer for at least 24 hours leading into Election Day, Nov. 5. This will culminate in a prayer vigil service on Election Day. As anxiety is particularly high during this election season and there are a diversity of concerns for the process and outcome, the prayers and vigil are being organized for spiritual support and to invoke the presence of the Holy, for love, justice, and peace. 

In order to fully blanket the time, your prayer is needed. By contributing your prayer for Election Day, prayers will be offered from across the United States and will enable a steady invitation to pause and pray throughout the day. Submitted prayers will also be shared during the vigil. 

Please submit your prayer through the form below. A digital prayer card will be created and shared on the website and across social media platforms. As the prayers are posted, please share them to your own context. 

Thank you for your prayerful response, and may we see a smooth election on November 5 and a peaceful transition of power, whatever the outcome, in the months ahead.
