In conjunction with the National Day of Prayer, May 5, the City of Crestview will be hosting a multi-denominational prayer service at Old Spanish Trail Park Amphitheater beginning at 6 pm.

“It’s going to be a good event,” Mayor Whitten said. “In the past, before COVID, we always had a great turnout, and it would be wonderful to see that again this year.”

This year’s ceremony will feature faith leaders from the Crestview area praying for first responders, city employees, military personnel, our schools, and many other entities from our community.

This event is free and open to the public and is expected to last an hour. Attendees requiring seating will need to bring their own.
