TUPELO, Miss., Dec. 19, 2014 /Christian Newswire/ -- American Family Association (www.afa.net) President Tim Wildmon released the following statement today regarding the upcoming "The Response Louisiana" prayer gathering taking place January 24th in Baton Rouge:

    "As our nation faces unprecedented crises—culturally, socially, and financially—'The Response Louisiana' is a call for worshippers in Louisiana and around the country to come together in unity for prayer and fasting. This event has one purpose and one purpose only: to approach God in humility and pray for his mercy, grace and guidance for our nation, which has lost its moral foundation and is suffering from a crisis of faith. It's so encouraging to see Christians from across denominational and cultural backgrounds join in this time of prayer, and we truly believe God will be faithful to His Word. AFA is pleased to announce this event on our Louisiana radio stations in hopes that even more Christians will commit themselves to taking part in this event."
