This Friday, the women of Chile invite us to reflect on the many gifts that God has given each of us 鈥� and our call to share those gifts.
You're welcome to join them in the World Day of Prayer celebration as we ask a question that draws us into the Bible, into the real context of Chilean lives and communities. There are several steps we will take together as we address the question asked in the theme: How Many Loaves Have You?
The Republic of Chile stretches between the Pacific Ocean and the Andes Mountain Range in the extreme southwest of South America. It borders to the north with Peru, Bolivia and Argentina to the east, with Antarctica to the south and the Pacific Ocean to the west.
Join us, and invite your friends and family to attend the World Day of Prayer service and learn more about Chile and its unique culture and heritage. Join Christians in more than 170 countries around the world and 2,000 communities across Canada who will gather on the World Day of Prayer to pray and act in solidarity with the people of Chile.
A local World Day of Prayer service will be held Friday at two locations: St. George鈥檚 United Church at Sixth Street and Fitzgerald in Courtenay at 2 p.m. and St. Peter鈥檚 Anglican Church at 218 Church St. in Comox at 1:30 p.m.
