Women's' World Day of Prayer is a worldwide movement of Christian women who come together to observe a common day of prayer held on the first Friday in March each year, and who, in many countries, have a continuing relationship in prayer and service. The motto is: Informed Prayer, Prayerful Action.
The Day of Prayer begins as dawn breaks over the islands of Tonga in the Pacific, and continues across each continent until the last services of this special day are held back in the Pacific on the islands of Samoa, circling the world in prayer for about 36 hours.
The service is a moving, challenging and faith-deepening experience. Above all, it is an encouragement to women in different countries to know they are remembered in prayer.
