TEXT: A heartfelt message from the Governor of Louisiana
Bobby Jindal: You know as
many of us survey our country today, we're worried about what we see.
We see a weak
economy...
Many of us worry
about whether our children will inherit the same opportunities we
inherited from our parents...
We worry about
whether they will be able to pursue the American Dream...
Too many think that
if we just elect the right politicians, pass the right law, pass the
right policies, that will fix all that ails America.
But what we really
need in these United States is a spiritual revival.
Winston Churchill
once said about the American people, you can trust the Americans to do
the right thing after they've exhausted all the alternatives.
Well we have
exhausted the alternatives. It is time to turn back to God.
That is why I'm so excited to invite you to come in January, come to
The Response here at the Pete Maravich Center on the LSU Campus in
Baton Rouge.
It'll be a time of
prayer, of fasting, of repentance, of celebration.
It's time to light
the spark that starts a spiritual revival that will put these United
States of America back on the right path.

Gov. Rick Perry. It is occurring on the same day as the Iowa
Freedom Summit, a big gathering in Des Moines featuring many potential
2016 candidates.

a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Pete Maravich Assembly Center Baton Rouge, Louisiana
"America is in the midst of a historic
crisis. We are besieged by financial debt, terrorism, and a multitude
of natural disasters. Our nation is faced with fatherless homes, an
epidemic of drugs and crime in our inner cities, a saturation of
pornography in our homes, abortion, and racism.
"Governor Bobby Jindal is inviting the
nation to a time of worship, prayer, fasting and repentance on January
24, 2015 at the Pete Maravich Assembly Center in Baton Rouge,
Louisiana. This is the time for Christians to come together to
call
upon Jesus to guide us through unprecedented struggles, and thank Him
for the blessings of freedom we so richly enjoy.
"A historic crisis facing our nation and
threatening our future demands a historic response of prayer and
fasting. This is our response — to call on Jesus on behalf of America,
that He might hear our cry and that we would see a revolution of
righteousness in this country."
