World Day of Prayer
Friday March 1, 7 pm
Memorial Presbyterian Church, 5108-50 Street
Rocky Mountain House

This Year the World Day of Prayer will be hosted by Presbyterian Church in Rocky Mountain House, a prayer movement that invites us to enrich our faith with the experience of Christians from other countries and cultures to bring hope to women touched by injustice. This year’s service was written by the World Day of Prayer committee of Slovenia.Throughout the worship service, we hear the stories of those who are coming to the table of bread, wine, water, and salt. Their stories reflect the political and economic situation from the time Slovenia was a socialist-communist state to today. Their stories are the voices of the refugee and migrant workers, the mothers, the grandmothers, the wives, and the Roma people. While listening to their stories, we ask for forgiveness for being silent in the face of injustice, and we pray that God open our hearts to compassion and understanding. And we leave with a blessing prayer to mutually support one another on the path of freedom, justice, and peace.

Everyone is welcome to attend it is a non-denominational prayer worship service. Coffee and Fellowship to follow.
