Wêreldbiddag (World Day of Prayer) is ‘n wêreldwye ekumeniese beweging wat deur Christenvroue gelei word. Hulle nooi ons om deel te neem met gebed en aksie om vrede en geregtigheid te bewerkstellig.
Wêreldbiddag word jaarliks in meer as 170 lande op die eerste Vrydag in Maart gevier.
2022 se tema is deur Engeland, Wallis en Noord-Ierland voorberei en is: “I know the plans I have for you”

The artwork, created by Angie Fox using a combination of embroidery, appliqué and metalwork, depicts key words such as, Freedom, represented as an open door to a pathway across an endless open vista; Justice, represented by broken chains; God’s Peace and Forgiveness, represented by the dove of peace and a peace lily breaking through the pavement.
Over all, a rainbow which has come to represent all these things from the story of Noah through to the modern day. It is a symbol of the overreaching love of God.
