Women’s World Day of Prayer is celebrated all around the world on the first Friday of March each year to encourage Christian women to engage in and lead personal and communal prayer. The ecumenical movement began in the 19th century, when Christian women in the U.S. and Canada began organizing cooperative activities to support women’s involvement in missions across the world.
This year a team of women from different Christian traditions has organized a time of prayer at the Church of the Resurrection. “Prayer stations” will be set up with a variety of creative prompts for different ways to engage in prayer. We will be focusing on prayers for peace and all are welcome.
*We will be holding two different times of prayer on the day, 11am-1pm and 7pm-8pm, to allow as many people as possible to join in.
