On 7 February, designated as National Day of Prayer and Fasting, Christians of all denominations will unite, pray, and fast for revival and transformation in Australia. The Prayer Day team have a vision for a country where children can flourish and play safely in the streets; marriages produce happy families and build a strong and vibrant nation for the greater good of all; the contribution to the local community by people of faith is valued; and the Judeo-Christian ethics and values that Australia was built upon are the source of national prosperity for future generations. Their vision statement says, ‘We live to see a society where justice, fair play and the common good provide the foundation for the legal, governmental and social framework that protects every Australian, and the same protection is afforded to the ageless institutions of marriage and family and the Judeo-Christian heritage and traditions that our nation has been built upon.’
