West Norfolk churches unite for prayer week
Churches in King's Lynn are holding a week of events to celebrate the Week of Prayer for Christian Unity from 18 - 25 January.
The Christian Unity initiative is observed by hundreds of churches across the world. This year's theme is drawn from Luke 24:48 "You are witnesses of these things" and focuses around mission. This is a fitting theme for the week because missionary commitment of the church goes hand in had with its ecumenical commitment.
Churches in King's Lynn are taking turns to host prayer every lunchtime:
| Monday 18th Jan |
Baptist Church |
12 noon |
| Tuesday 19th Jan |
St John's |
1pm |
| Wednesday 20th Jan |
