World Day of Prayer

What is World Day of Prayer?

Informed Prayer. Prayerful Action. Imagine Christians from over 170 countries coming together in spirit, uniting on a common day to pray for relevant issues affecting women and children. This is a reality: the movement has been active for 100 years! Each year, a different country writes the service materials. The World Day of Prayer is generally celebrated on the first Friday of March. This year (2027), the writing committee is the World Day of Prayer International Committee with a global focus. The theme for this 100th anniversary service is “United in Prayer for Justice and Peace”, based on 1 Samuel 2: 1-10 and Luke 1: 39-55.
