Week of Prayer for Christian

Unity!

The Week of Prayer for Chris-tian Unity has a history of over 100 years , in which Christians around the world have taken part in an octave of prayer for visible Christian unity.!!

!

For those of us who claim Christ as our model of liv-ing and savior of humanity, “unity” means we are one. This year the Week of Prayer for Christian Unity (Jan. 18�25) has as its theme the Scripture citation 2 Corin-thians 5:14�20. The first line contains our mission statement... "For the love of Christ impels us, once we have come to the conviction that one died for all; therefore all have died." We are one in the death of Christ and therefore live in unity with all other Chris-tians.!!

God, who are unity in three holy persons��Father, Son, and Holy Spirit��!

you have called us to live in peace with all people.!You have also called us to work toward unity in pur-

pose to spread the Gospel to all nations.!Graciously give us the courage and strength to work

toward unity,!and act toward each other as brothers and sisters.!

We ask this in the unity of God, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.!Amen.!

World Day of Migrants And Refugees!
