A Florida school board decision to commemorate the National Day of Prayer in Miami-Dade County schools caused controversy when one member of the board made an exclusive truth claim, stating that “God and Jesus Christ” is the true God.

The Miami-Dade County Public Schools board voted unanimously on Wednesday to recognize Thursday, May 5, 2022, as a National Day of Prayer within schools, following Congress designating the first Thursday in May as a National Day of Prayer.
