World Day of Prayer

A brief prayer service followed by a shared morning tea - bring a plate to share!

Each year on the first Friday of March, the churches of Morwell gather to participate in the 'World Day of Prayer'. This year it will be hosted by St Luke's Morwell Uniting Church at 10.30am, Friday March 6th.

Started in 1927 and originally known as 'Women's World Day of Prayer', this annual event is led by and focuses on women across the world, but is open for all to participate.

This year's service has been prepared by women in Nigeria highlighting their culture, joys and challenges. They have chosen the theme: "I will give you rest: Come" (from Matthew 11:28-30).
Eileen and Graeme Rule, who lived and worked for the church in Nigeria for many years, will be guest speakers.
