The Santa Maria Valley National Day of Prayer Event, coinciding with a federally sanctioned Day of Prayer, will take place 5:30-7 p.m. Thursday, May 4 at the Santa Maria Fairpark.

The time has been changed to accommodate more workforce and families. For the first time, the event will be bi-lingual, from the prayers to the music.

Oswaldo Burruel from Rojo, a Christian band, will make a guest appearance.

All denominations are invited to attend.
