IT did not matter if they were from the Muslim faith, Catholic, Anglican, Full Gospel, Hindu,

Seventh-Day Adventist, Baha'i or Orisha.

Those gathered at the Grand Stand of the Queen's Park Savannah in Port of Spain yesterday had

one common goal: to lift the nation in prayer as it celebrated its 40th year as a Republic.

And so they did for more than three hours during the second annual National Day of Prayer

hosted by the People's National Movement government.

The event, which started promptly at 8.30 a.m., saw spirited performances by the Lydian Singers,

the National Steel Symphony Orchestra, The Swastika Dance Company, WITCO Desperadoes

Steel Orchestra, the Kaveesh Maharaj Ensemble, the Laventille Youth Chorale and 12-year-old

singer Tyrell Toby.

There were prayers offered for peace in the nation, for an end to criminal activity, for unity

among families, economic stability and even for politicians to “do what they must do to get the

Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) bill passed”.

“We pray that those responsible for the safety and security of all law-abiding citizens to arrest

the scourge of criminal activity that is plaguing our land and threatens the stability of our

country. Let us not be prisoners in our homes,” prayed Pundit Uttam Maharaj.

“We know that righteousness exalts a nation but sin is a reproach to any people, therefore we

repent of the many atrocities as a nation-the bad example set for our children, misbehaviour in

public office, widespread wheeling and dealing and corruption, the slow wheel of justice, and in

many cases downright injustice,” said Apostle Joseph Vernon Duncan of the Full Gospel

Church.

He noted that the nation's moral, ethical and spiritual standards had fallen and as a result it was

reaping the consequences of this.

“Have mercy on us, Lord, and heal our land from years of deep and open wounds,” he prayed.

Duncan also prayed for oil prices to increase and for economic growth.

“For our sake, let the oil prices rise. Let there be greater innovativeness in our people. We

prophesy more jobs from today. We prophesy greater disposable income for the citizens of this

nation, from today. Let every eligible worker be provided for, O God,” Duncan said.

Pastor Leslie Moses of the Seventh-Day Adventist Church called for both the Opposition and

Government to work together to eradicate corruption.

“Lord, I plead with you today that you would help our parliamentarians to do what they must do

to get the FATCA bill passed and we thank you in advance for saving our country from the

possibilities of the failings of this bill.”

Prayers were also offered by Roman Catholic priest Fr Clyde Harvey, Bishop Claude Berkley,

Hafiz Maulana Atif Majeed of the Muslim faith, Rev Maxine Forrest of the Methodist faith, Dr

Ellis Burris of the Baha'i faith, and representatives of the Council of Orisha Elders.

In his feature address, Prime Minister Dr Keith Rowley declared that “this land is still good”.

He said despite the many challenges facing the county, there was much to be thankful for.

“There is no nation known to me that, from its birth till today, has had only good times. In fact

some of the greater nations of the world today have entered the darkness and despair.

“Even today we in Trinidad and Tobago, regardless of changed circumstance, there are teachers

in all the schools for all our children, there are doctors and nurses in the hospitals and there is

food on the table. Let us be thankful and let us be a grateful people,” Rowley said.

He said he believed that if given the chance to go anywhere in the world without worrying about

immigration restrictions, outsiders would still choose to come to this country.

He added: “The best vehicles in the world are the Grand Prix Formula One cars and you test

them, not on a straight track where they accelerate to infinity, but on a very torturous track with

long stretches and deep and dangerous curves. The journey to the chequered flag is always on

that route.

“And there are days and seconds where we accelerate like there was no tomorrow and there was

no need for brakes, but as we enter the dangerous curves we have to slow down and very
carefully and very efficiently negotiate to get on to the next straight way. And at the end of the

race there is a chequered flag where only the victor will celebrate. That is the root of a nation.”
