Wet and threatening weather did not dampen the spirits at the National Day of Prayer event, held at noon Thursday on the Union County Courthouse lawn. Participants prayed for a variety of issues including families, businesses and leaders in the community, state and nation. Event organizers focused on Ephesians 4:3 which calls on Christians to live in unity with one another. Above, Rev. Rorke Warne, from Springdale Baptist Church, prays for the community.
