Today, March 1, is ‘World Day of Prayer’. It is being observed around the world under the theme, “I was a Stranger and You Welcomed Me”. World Day of Prayer is a worldwide movement of Christian women of many traditions who welcome all to observe a common day of prayer each year on the first Friday of March.
It was the Women of France, a six-member committee consisting of women representing various multi-cultural complexities that initially started observing this day. But after a short while many years ago, it grew, as the Women of France began receiving the overwhelming support of a number of countries across the globe.
It became a worldwide “ecumenical” movement of which the motto is “Informed Prayer and Prayerful Action”. It signifies that prayer and action are inseparable.
Guyanese are being urged to come out and join in the World Day of Prayer by attending various church services across the country.
A service for Georgetown will be held at St. Andrew’s Kirk, Brickdam, and Avenue of the Republic at 17.00 hrs.
Services will also be held in New Amsterdam, Corriverton, West Coast Berbice, East Coast Demerara (Beterverwagting), East Bank Demerara (Grove & Mocha Arcadia), West Coast Demerara, Linden, Bartica, Rupununi and the Essequibo Coast.
Also on Sunday March 3rd, there will be a service for children and young adults at Calvary Lutheran Church, Alexander Street, and North Road, Georgetown at 15.00 hrs.
