In 2023, over 1.5 million Christians speaking 90 different languages in 150 coountries came together in spirit, uniting to pray for relevant issues affecting women and children.
Through preparation and participation, we can learn how our sisters of other countries, languages, and cultures understand the Biblical passages in their context. We can hear their concerns and needs and can join in solidarity with them as we pray with and for them. In this way, it is possible to enrich our Christian faith as it grows deeper and broader in an international, ecumenical expression.
The motto of the World Day of Prayer movement is Informed Prayer and Prayerful Action, and the theme for 2024 is "I Beg You- bear with each other in love". Through our prativipation in the World Day of Prayer, we affirm that prayer and action are inseparable and that both have immeasurable influence on the world.
