Week of Prayer for Christian Unity

Celebrate the 2013 Week of Prayer for Christian Unity

Chris Liu-Beers, Former Program Associate · January 4, 2013 · Leave a Comment

Week of Prayer for Christian UnityFrom its founding more than 75 years ago, the NC Council of Churches has worked toward Christian unity, and we are proud to join with our members in celebrating the annual Week of Prayer for Christian Unity from January 18-25.

The Graymoor Ecumenical & Interreligious Institute has prepared material for this year’s celebration. You will find prayer services, prayers of the faithful and musical suggestions at their website.

The theme for 2013 is “What Does God Require of Us?” (cf. Micah 6:6-8).

In North Carolina, there will be several observances of the Week of Prayer for Christian Unity, including:

Tuesday, January 22, 7 p.m.
Resurrection United Methodist Church
4705 Old Chapel Hill Road, Durham

The Most Reverend Michael Burbidge, Bishop of Raleigh, and the Rev. Hope Morgan Ward, Resident Bishop, United Methodist Church of North Carolina, will participate in an Ecumenical Service of the Word along with other clergy. Holy Cross Roman Catholic Gospel Choir will join in the celebration. Click here for more info from the Catholic Diocese of Raleigh.


Wednesday, January 23, 7 p.m.
The Cathedral of Saint Patrick
1621 Dilworth Road East, Charlotte

Bishops from the Lutheran, Anglican, Roman Catholic and United Methodist Churches will be presiding. Click here for more info from the Cathedral of Saint Patrick.


Whether in these services or in your own congregation, we hope you will join us in celebrating the Week of Prayer for Christian Unity.
