World Day of Prayer
This year the World Day of Prayer takes place on Friday 6 March 2026 at St Edmund’s Church, 2.30pm. The service has been prepared by the Christian women of Nigeria and the theme is ‘I will give you rest, come’ from Matthew 11:28 – 30. The service shares the stories of four Nigerian women who inspire us to work towards a world without injustice,
insecurity, marginalisation, religious persecution, poverty and despair. We will join a great wave of prayer that encircles the globe, all praying with and for the country and people of Nigeria. All welcome.
Refreshments will follow the service.
