Women's World day of Prayer

Luxor has both Christian and Moslem communities and the politics of the Middle East are equally diverse. Air your views on the situation.

Women's World day of Prayer

Post by Helsx »

'Women's World Day of Prayer is a global, ecumenical movement of informed prayer and prayerful action, organised and led by Christian women who call the faithful together on the first Friday in March each year to observe a common day of prayer and who, in many countries, have a continuing relationship in prayer and service.

The service is written by a different country each year and that country then becomes the focus of the world's prayers on the day itself. The first service of the day will take place on the Island of Samoa and the last service will take place on American Samoa. From the time that dawn breaks over the Island of Samoa until the last services of this special day, the world is circled in prayer for 36 hours.' (Text taken from the WWDP website 'Home' page.

Egypt has been chosen for the 2014 World Day of Prayer. See more here....http://www.wwdp-natcomm.org/wwdp_2014_Day_of_Prayer.asp
