American Baptist Women’s Ministries, together with Baptist World Alliance Women’s Department, calls American Baptist women to gather in their churches and communities on (or near) the first Monday of November to pray for one another, engage in Bible study and reflections, and give an offering that will empower women and girls. Your “Day of Prayer” can be a full day, a weekend, or a couple of hours!

The adaptable 2013 Day of Prayer program, prepared this year by the European Baptist Women’s Union for worldwide use, continues the 2010-2015 theme, In Step with the Spirit, with an emphasis this year on Love. The program and supplementary resources are available at http://www.bwawd.org/Day-of-Prayer.

One of the Day of Prayer grants awarded from 2012 offering monies went to Karen Baptist Women’s Organization for their annual leadership training event, held this year in Portland, Oregon.
