King said he does not expect any negative reactions to Prayer on the Quad because it is nondenominational and open to everyone. But some people think campus is not the place for public displays of prayer. Senior J.J. Pionke said she credits King for his idea of Prayer on the Quad but said displays of this nature are insulting to students who are not of a Christian denomination. He said he hopes people will notice the prayer group because of its conspicuous location. O'Sullivan said she thinks the University needs something like Prayer on the Quad to experience the power of prayer.
Prayer is very pretty and beautiful, and it is something almost everyone can relate to.
King said he encourages everyone to live life to the fullest and not take things for granted. I pray that it will be a big success.
