CLOVIS — Thursday’s National Day of Prayer won’t be traditional during the COVID-19 pandemic. Instead, organizers in Clovis have planned three events, in addition to encouraging prayer from home.

The events:

• Walk and pray at Hillcrest Park — sun up to sun down. Eight stops will be marked along a two-mile trail, with participants encouraged to pray for government, military, media, business, education, church, family and health.

• Children’s drive and pray at Hillcrest — sun up to sun down. Families are encouraged to bring children on a short drive looping through the park, entering from Sycamore Street.

• Courthouse park and pray — noon to 1 p.m. Participants may tune into 105.9 FM to listen to the program while remaining in their cars.
