The World Day of Prayer is a global ecumenical movement which brings Christians of many traditions together to observe a common day of prayer each year, this year on March 3. In this way, it is possible to enrich Christian faith as it grows deeper and broader in an international, ecumenical expression. The motto of the World Day of Prayer movement is Informed Prayer and Prayerful Action.
This year's theme is "I Have Heard About Your Faith" and is rooted in Ephesians 1:15-19. Worship materials have been produced by the World Day of Prayer Committee of Taiwan. The theme is an invitation to active listening, which is the ground of our prayers. Following the example of the letter (1:15-19), where the author praises the church for their faith in Jesus and love toward all the saints, the worship service contextualizes the witness of the saints with the stories from Taiwan.
