Hundreds of Christians from various denominations in Tennessee gathered together to pray and seek God, believing for a move by His Spirit that will ultimately “transform” families, cities, the Volunteer State and the nation.
A 30-day prayer and fasting initiative, called Pray4TN, launched on July 1 and concluded over the weekend on August 2nd. Organizers told CBN News in an emailed statement that while similar events have been held before, this year’s timing was critical.

“It’s a time at the beginning of the TN government’s fiscal year when we focus on praying for our government leaders, humbling ourselves and repenting for our shortcomings, standing in the gap and repenting for the evils in our state, and repenting of our own personal sins. We want Jesus to be honored in Tennessee as the Volunteer State that is #LeadingtheWay,” wrote Barbi Franklin, Pray4TN State Facilitator.

As CBN News reported, State Rep. Monty Fritts (R) took steps last year to spearhead a resolution that would officially make the month of July a month to pray, fast and repent.
HJR0051 was signed in May by Gov. Bill Lee, designating the period of July 1, 2025, through July 31, 2025, as a time of prayer and fasting in Tennessee, seeking God’s hand of mercy and healing on the state.
Organizers say that with the signing of the resolution, they believe it placed an “unprecedented, annual call for those ‘physically able and spiritually inclined’ to join in the effort.”
