CUMC hosts World Day of Prayer

World Day of Prayer is Friday, March 2, 2018. Ogden’s Community United Methodist Church is hosting this year’s special event beginning at 2 p.m.

This year the women of the World Day of Prayer (DP) Committee of Suriname call you to worship with the words: “All God’s creation is very good!” You are invited to learn about Suriname’s history and rich cultural diversity. The women share their stories of intergenerational wisdom, traditions, and experiences of God’s profound love.

The focus is on Genesis 1, the story of creation. They remind you that we are caretakers of God’s creation.

WDP’s guiding principles affirm that “prayer is rooted in listening to God and to one another.” Through the worship service, you will listen to the people of Suriname. They will take you to their communities and through their concerns. Their everyday life is woven into their prayers.
