Prayer Force One To Visit Seven Missouri Cities During
"Spiritual State of the Union Tour"

     No, its not the president's personal bus. The president doesn't even have a bus. Just the same, a bus painted very much like Air Force One will be making stops in seven Missouri cities during its upcoming "Spiritual State of the Union Tour," August 23-29.

     The bus, called Prayer Force One, is the ministry flagship of former Oklahoma State Senator, Ed Moore and his wife, Sandy. The tour, which is being sponsored by The National Day of Prayer and the Bott Radio Network, will culminate its Missouri tour at the foot of the state capitol steps in Jefferson City as part of United As One's, Capitol Christian Festival, where over 10,000 people are expected to attend.

     It is interesting to note that the Prayer Force One bus was built the same year as Air Force One (SAM 27000), which is now on permanent display at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library. The bus is also painted with the exact same paint as Air Force One. "We've made use of the iconic name and familiar paint scheme of Air Force One in order to draw attention to the need to pray for America." Moore said. "Everywhere we go, people immediately relate to the name, Prayer Force One, and the need to pray for our country."

     So far, Prayer Force One has visited 26 states, 17 state capitols and conducted over sixty news interviews. In addition to key government and religious leaders, during the last presidential campaign, the Moores were privileged to have had two presidential candidates on board as well. The Missouri tour stops will be as follows:
