Imagine over 1.5 million Christians speaking 90 different languages in 150 countries coming together in spirit; uniting to pray for relevant issues affecting women and children. This was the 2025 reality for this tremendous movement that has been active for nearly 100 years.

The World Day of Prayer is traditionally celebrated on the first Friday of March, though communities can choose other dates.  A different participating country writes the service each year, and we look forward to that prepared by the WDP Committee of Nigeria 2026.
