World Day of Prayer

March 2nd 2018 is also World Prayer Day. This event is always celebrated on the first Friday in March every year. Christian women in the U.S. and Canada started a movement in the 19th century this grew into a worldwide prayer in 1927. The motto of this special day is "Informed Prayer and Prayerful Action". 

While the event was created by women the day is celebrated by men and children as well. Christians of many cultures, traditions, and races in over 170 countries around the world unite in prayer. Everyone is encouraged to participate. People around the world will unite to affirm their belief and faith in Christ. The experiences of other Christians around the world will help enrich the experience of coming together. Participants may become more aware of services that they can use their own talent in to help others. God loves all people everywhere is expressed within the world day of prayer.
