Sharon has won the Favorite Female Vocalist of the Year Award in the gospel music industry. Jerry is involved with trucking as a driver and as an owner operator.

Bob Hataway, President of TransAliveUSA, will serve as MC. Hataway stated, "It is a privilege each year to be involved with the presentation of the International Day of Prayer for Truckers.

Twelve years ago Bob Hataway and Joe Hunter met at the Mid America Trucking Show and planned the National Day of Prayer for Truckers. It has now expanded into an International Day of Prayer for Truckers world wide.

We receive requests each year from drivers across the country and other countries to include them. "With 21st century internet technology, we can involve drivers worldwide," Hataway declared.

We invite truckers who can not attend to join with us at 9:00AM, your local time, to pray for truckers and their families. Prayers offered at local times will ensure prayers being offered throughout the day.

Carriers, trucking companies, company drivers, owner operators, vendors, truckstops, receivers, and shippers can set aside a moment of silence at 9:00AM on April 2, 2011 for prayer for the truckers and their families everywhere.

The International Day of Prayer for Truckers is sponsored by TransAlive USA, Truckstop Ministries, Transport for Christ, and Tim Young, CEO Mid-America Trucking Show/EMA in Louisville, KY.

Exhibitors at MATS are encouraged to assign a representative from their booth to join the International Day of Prayer for Truckers at the Truckers Pavilion at Papa John Stadium parking lot. Shuttle buses are available between the pavilion and the exhibition halls.
