A National Day of Prayer is planned for Ottawa with the aim of bringing the country together to pray for its needs as well as its leaders, organizers say.

The July 12 event will be the first of its kind, and organizers say they are expecting about 3,000 people to gather on Parliament Hill to pray together.
