WEEK OF PRAYER FOR CHRISTIAN UNITY: January 18-25, 2007

RESOURCES

Two websites provide the 2007 Week of Prayer resources in different formats:

Firstly, the full documentation (introduction to the theme, the origins of the material from Umlazi, a proposed worship service, biblical reflections and prayers for the eight days, and additional resources from South Africa) may be found at: http://wcc-coe.org

Secondly, the website of the Graymoor Ecumenical and Interreligious Institute has adapted these materials and posted copies of the worship resources (poster, background resources, worship bulletin, etc.) that can be printed from the website or ordered at http://www.geii.org/wpcu.htm.

Plan to make use of these resources in your local communities and congregations during the 2007 Week of Prayer for Christian Unity, joining with Christian throughout our world “to break the silence that oppresses” as together we seek to receive God’s gift of oneness, reconciliation, and healing in Christ.
