60,000 folks showed up in Times square New York City last Sunday afternoon (Sept 20) to pray for the future of the city and the nation. This was sponsored by 200 Christian churches and the response was far greater than the 15,000 or so they had planned on.
New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg supported the event and addressed the crowd:
"It’s a little strange for me to be up here," he said. "I’m a Jew. But I just celebrated Rosh Hoshana, our new year. So I guess it’s appropriate for me to wish you all a happy new year."
Response: Another one of those events that the MSM totally ignored and right smack dab in the middle of the media capitol of the world.
