What would you do if you found that one of your great loves was falling apart and it would continue unless you and others intervened? Would you simply watch—for fear of who you may upset or the work that it would require? Or would you go to any lengths necessary to ensure that your loved one got the restoration they needed? This is a question that Eleanor Wilkerson found herself asking in 2015 when she realized that her loved one was falling apart—that loved one, is our country.

Mrs. Wilkerson, is an extremely concerned citizen who is not afraid to speak out and take action to make a change. Due to her determination, Mrs. Wilkerson decided that she could not sit idly by, so she began praying about what small steps she could take to help her great love in the wake of the 2016 election. She realized that the first step to restoration was to empower the women around her. In January 2016, she began hosting rallies at her home in which she educated women in the American political process. Mrs. Wilkerson discovered that most people did not know simple things like who their United States Congressmen were, or what the State Legislature even was. To tackle this issue, Mrs. Wilkerson created and distributed handouts with maps of the five Congressional districts in Oklahoma, the names of all the Oklahoma Senators and Representatives, and instruction on how to find and contact one’s direct Representative, Governor, Senator, or other government officials. Her meetings touched many women and grew to large numbers. The meetings grew to be so influential that many elected officials came to speak at them including: Senator Kim David (District 18 and the first Republican woman to serve as the Majority Whip), State Representative Katie Henkie (District 71), State Representative Jadine Nollan (District 66), and State Representative Pam Peterson (District 67 and Majority Floor Leader). Mrs. Wilkerson had created a movement among her state, but she decided she needed to go into even greater lengths for her great love; so, she founded the National Women’s Prayer and Voting Army.

Intending to impact the 2016 elections, she began the process of recruiting women to sign up to commit to pray and vote for Donald Trump for the Presidential election. This goal was not easy, but Mrs. Wilkerson was determined. She made a large number of contacts at the National Republican Convention in Cleveland, mobilizing hundreds of women in Oklahoma and Texas. She began hosting prayer meetings once a month in her home which have been ongoing since February 2017. She also launched the National Women’s Prayer and Voting Army with a website and Facebook in July 2016. Through these efforts, approximately 2,000 women signed up to vote and pray for Donald Trump and all Conservative candidates in the 2016 election. Mrs. Wilkerson and her husband celebrated with the nation and was honored by what God was able to do through them. They both attended President Trump’s Inauguration, Inaugural Ball, and the Texas Ball. On top of that, National Women’s PVA hosted a victory celebration on January 29, 2017, with almost every TV station covering the event. As exciting as it all was, Mrs. Wilkerson recognized that the movement and mobilization of women were not over. 

The National Women’s Prayer and Voting Army has not stopped fighting including men membership’s, sending ballots to 40 states for the 2024 election ( no other organization to our knowledge offers this for free) and growing our membership. We have received recognition from ivoter guide and now a partner member. We use ivoter guide to vet candidates in primaries and for the general election.  Our Prayer Warrior membership has 375 members and growing, a prayer agenda sent out every week with an open rate of 32-45% open rate and have consistently prayed on a conference call on Mondays & Thursdays since 2020. Our Facebook page has 3,5K following and Instagram 425 following. We are never ask for donations only for your participation to take action and apply your knowledge in the political process!!! 

Mrs. Wilkerson wholeheartedly believes that people will make a difference and continue to change the course of our country back to the United States foundation of, “In God We Trust.” She stands firmly on Pro-God, Pro-Family, and Pro-Bible (the nation’s foundational book) principles. With the goal of signing up a million people to commit to vote and pray for Conservatives, Mrs. Wilkerson is urging all to join the NWPVA in our efforts because people with knowledge create the power we need to restore our beloved nation.
