(CNN) - Republican presidential contender Rick Perry recently urged social conservatives to pray for President Barack Obama.

"As I campaign for president, I not only ask you for your vote and your support, I ask for your prayers. I ask you to pray for our country. I ask you to pray for our president to give him wisdom, to open his eyes," the Texas Governor told an audience in Florida last month.

Doing just that is the stated mission of the Presidential Prayer Team.
