World Day of Prayer 2022

2022 World Day of Prayer Services – Kitchener – Friday, March 4th

The Women’s Inter-Church Council of Canada (www.wicc.org ) annual World Day of Prayer will be celebrated in Kitchener on Friday, March 4th, 2022. The program material this year was prepared by the Churches of England, Wales & Northern Ireland, with the theme, “I Know the Plans I have for You”. Due to the continuing pandemic, we will mostly celebrate digitally this year, but with a few small in-person services too.  The Women’s Inter-Church Council of Canada (WICC) has prepared a 55 min. video for our use.
