People in more than 170 countries will celebrate World Day of Prayer on Friday, March 1, 2019. This year, the women of the WDP Committee of Slovenia call us to worship considering the words “Come-Everything is Ready.” With these words as backdrop, we are invited to learn about Slovenia’s history and rich cultural diversity. The focus is on Jesus’ parable of the Great Dinner in Luke 14:15-24. One phrase in the worship service especially captures the ideas we will explore: “Welcoming God, in your love, you have prepared a table for all, and you inspire us to open our hearts and homes to offer a place to the ones who are not yet at the table.”
This years’ service will be held on Friday, March 1 at 10:30 a.m. at the Military Street Baptist Church at Church on the Hill. A time of Fellowship begins beforehand at 10:00. Women from several areal churches will participate in the service. In case of inclement weather, the service will be held at the same time on March 8. All women, men, and children are welcome! For more information, please contact Rev. Dale Holden at 207-532-7165.
