The wooden altar that was in downtown Montgomery a couple of weeks ago is now in Selma. It will be there through July 25, and everyone is invited to come pray, said William Owens, a traveling evangelist based in Montgomery.
It will be the altar’s second stop, and from there, it will travel on to Birmingham, Tupelo and beyond, Owens said. The display — a simple wooden altar — is simply meant to draw people to prayer and repentance, and Owens will be on hand to talk with people or answer questions.
One man prayed to receive Christ at the altar in Montgomery, Owens said. “The experience there was wonderful.”
Supporting him in that effort was Terry Veazey, another Montgomery evangelist and a member of Eastern Hills Baptist Church who is just starting his own tour of sorts. He calls it Repent America, and he plans to travel to every state capitol building to preach a message of repentance and love.
His first stop was the Kentucky State Capitol in Frankfort on July 13.
“I want to challenge the legislators and governors in our nation,” Veazey said.
He also wants to call the nation to a place where it can find healing in Christ. His plan is to visit the Southern states first, then travel to Alaska — his birth state.
