Wave of Prayer
Our "Wave of Prayer" is a continuous expression of our commitment in prayer to each other. It runs throughout the year so that the work and members of each and every area in which Mothers' Union is active is prayed for at some point. We include this in our Midday Prayers.
The Wave of Prayer commenced in England in 1921. Every diocese in the World wide organization is prayed for during the midday prayers on 3 consecutive days each year.
This unbroken chain of prayer provides the spiritual foundation for the mission and work of Mothers Union.
MU branches will celebrate this service in many different ways, some in a home, hall, church or chapel but all will pray for their links across the sea.
The Prayers we are asked to pray are:
Melbourne is linked with the following Dioceses which are prayed for during July 30th - August 1st each year.
