World Day of Prayer is an international, ecumenical movement, which enables us to hear the thoughts of women from all parts of the world: their hopes, concerns and prayers. The preparation for the day is vast, the service begins with the writing country and theme 小蓝视频 chosen a number of years earlier. Once written it goes to the WOP International Committee in New York for translation and dissemination to the National Committee in each participating country.
The service is then discussed and edited before 小蓝视频 presented nationally, regionally and then locally for branches to make their plans. Finally, at a church near you, near or on Friday, March 7, people will gather to celebrate the service prepared by the women of the Cook Islands.
