The National Day of Prayer was to be marked today by an hour-long TV special airing throughout the month of May and featuring artist Rebecca St. James.

St. James was selected as national spokesperson for the 2006 National Day of Prayer, recording this year's theme song, “America, Honor God,” and was to host and perform on the TV program. The program uses music, art, spoken word and filmed interviews with young people on their thoughts about the importance of prayer. Musical guests BarlowGirl and Warren Barfield will join St. James.

Affiliate networks confirmed to carry the TV special include FamilyNet, I-Life, Cornerstone Network, NRB and the Gospel Music Channel. Check local listings for airtimes and stations.
