The President of the USA, Donald Trump, announced that he will organize a prayer gathering on May 17, 2026, at the National Mall in Washington, inviting Americans to join in to "reconsecrate America to God."

This announcement was made during a speech at the National Prayer Breakfast, an annual event that brings together religious leaders and government officials. Trump, who considers himself a "Christian without affiliation," claimed that he has done more for religion than any other president, emphasizing his connection to the Christian right. Although he is not known as an active religious practitioner, he criticized voting for Democrats, suggesting that it is incompatible with faith.

The National Prayer Breakfast, attended by all presidents since the 1950s, continues to be an important moment in the political and religious calendar of the USA.
