2023 World Day of Prayer Service - St Cuthbert's Church , Gt Salkeld at 6.00 pm on Friday 3rd March

for 1 hour
St Cuthbert's Church
St Cuthbert's Church, Off the main road through Great Salkeld, CA11 9NA

The service each year is written by Christian women of a different country. This year it has been prepared by the women of Taiwan - a country caught in a superpower struggle as China continues to claim it as its sovereign territory and as we know from the news, China is beginning to harass Taiwan on a daily basis.
The World Day of Prayer is intended to be a huge wave of prayer which will circle the earth for at least 38 hours - prayer makes a difference, so it needs your support, so we hope you will be able to attend this special service.
There will be Refreshments after the service.
