Dr. Ugobi and #prayusa250 on September 21 Bismarck and Minot

Open Range host Gary Emineth and Dr. Ugobi of Minot about “Pray USA 250,” a faith-based prayer initiative connected to America’s 250th anniversary. Dr. Ugobi explains that the idea began as a strong spiritual prompting during prayer at the start of the year. Though he is a pediatrician and not a pastor, he felt compelled to move forward after what he describes as repeated confirmation, including the availability of related website domain names and providential connections with others already praying for the nation. He says the movement is meant both to thank God for the past 250 years of the United States and to pray for the country’s future. The discussion highlights two upcoming public events in North Dakota: one in Bismarck and one in Minot, both focused on corporate prayer, national unity, and intercession for America’s leaders and future. Dr. Ugobi emphasizes that the gatherings are free and open to everyone, with no registration fees or donations required. He and the host discuss the biblical basis for praying for leaders regardless of political affiliation and the importance of unity in a divided country. A major theme of the conversation is the power of corporate prayer. Dr. Ugobi points to biblical examples such as Pentecost, Peter’s imprisonment, and the story of Esther to argue that collective prayer has a unique spiritual significance beyond private devotion. He also shares his perspective as an immigrant from Nigeria, saying America’s global importance makes its stability a matter of worldwide concern. The interview closes by promoting future events, including planned gatherings in Fargo and major prayer events at the Museum of the Bible in Washington, D.C., in April, May, and June. #faith #prayer #America250 #Christianity #northdakota www.prayusa250.com
