Community Event - Windsor/Leamington - World Day of Prayer Service March 2 at 1:30pm
World Day of Prayer is a global movement of Christian women calling to prayer and action for peace and justice on every first Friday of March and throughout the year. This year, St. Matthew’s Anglican Church is hosting the service for churches in our region, with participation of a number of other local parishes, using a service written by women of Suriname in South America on March 2 at 1:30pm. Through the prayers and presentations in the service, we will learn about the impacts of climate change and environmental degradation especially on the poor and marginalized, using the situation in Suriname and other areas in the Amazon rainforest region as an example. If you would like more information about the World Day of Prayer, you can find it at the following websites:
