WILKES-BARRE, LUZERNE COUNTY-Many people gathered on Public Square in downtown Wilkes-Barre on Friday night.  They were there for prayer, praise and fellowship.
A number of area churches joined together to host this event to bring people of all religions together.
Mary Peatrice is the organizer.  She says that many times people turn to God in time of crisis. But Friday's event was to show that God is always here and people of all religions can come together in prayer and fellowship.
The first event was held two years ago in the rain and raised money for Hurricane Katrina victims.  The second event last year brought more people to Public Square...and Friday's third event had the biggest crowd ever.  The organizers say they will bring Prayer to Public Square again.
