Week of Prayer for Christian Unity 2018
|
Thursday, January 18, 2018 to Thursday, January 25, 2018
The Week of Prayer for Christian Unity is an international Christian ecumenical observance kept annually between January 18 and January 25. It is an octave, that is, an observance lasting eight days.
The Week of Prayer for Christian Unity began in 1908 as the Octave of Christian Unity, and focused on prayer for church unity. The dates of the week were proposed by Father Paul Wattson, cofounder of the Graymoor Franciscan Friars. He conceived of the week beginning on the Feast of the Confession of Peter, the Protestant variant of the ancient Feast of the Chair of Saint Peter, on January 18, and concluding with the Feast of the Conversion of Saint Paul on January 25.

A Prayer For This Week
Blessed are you Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for all you have given us, and especially for this time together. May these moments in this space make us more aware of the riches you have given each and every person here and may the Spirit of God continue to inspire us to share these same gifts with each other and the world. For to You and to God the Creator and to the Holy Spirit, we cannot help but offer all the praise and thanksgiving. Amen.
