“Pray fervently in righteousness and avail much

The Effective, Fervent Prayer of a righteous man avails much.”

James 5:16B

Prayer Gatherings At Metro City Halls

12 pm – 1 pm

Meeting in Public Places To Be One United Voice in Prayer

“The National Day of Prayer is an annual observance held on the first Thursday of May, inviting people of all faiths to pray for the nation. It was created in 1952 by a joint resolution of the United States Congress, and signed into law by President Harry S. Truman.” 

Gateway National Day of Prayer exists to promote many local public prayer gatherings in the St Louis Metro Bi-State Region annually on the first Thursday of May. 

We pray biblical values in the name of Jesus with an emphasis on personal repentance, for our Nation and Communities, not only on the NDP but daily.  We are a Judeo- Christian expression of the National Observance for which the President of the United States and all 50 State Governors write annual Proclamations. We are a 501c3 non-profit organization. We work under the auspices of the NDP Task Force but receive no funding from them.

The Gateway NDP was established in the ’80s by Brenda Young and Jay Teutenberg.  We rely on the generous donations of the Metro area citizens to produce our own materials and purchase materials to train coordinators to promote approximately 50 public, local Prayer Events annually.

To donate:

1) mail checks to

PO Box 220791

2) donate at a prayer gathering
Our email is: gatewayndp@yahoo.com  Join us on Facebook at Gateway NDP
