The World Day of Prayer continues to be a powerful reminder of our shared faith and global fellowship, drawing Christians together in hope, compassion, and unity.The focus of the 2026 service was Nigeria, with prayers offered for its people, its communities, and its future. Worship centered on the theme “I will give you rest, Come”, inspired by the words of Jesus in Matthew 11:28–30. This message of comfort and invitation resonated deeply throughout the service, encouraging all who attended to reflect on God’s promise of rest and renewal.
