Good Shepherd to Host World Day of Prayer, Friday, March 3

Good Shepherd’s Women of the ELCA will host World Day of Prayer 2017 on Friday morning, March 3, beginning at 9:00 in the church’s Fellowship Hall, 701 Iowa Avenue. This annual ecumenical worship service, shared locally by six Decorah congregations, has been celebrated around the world since 1927. The women of the Philippines, host country for WDP 2017, have provided worship resources calling for an exploration of the concepts of economic justice and our response in light of God’s generosity. Coffee and light refreshments will be served. For WDP resources and additional information click here.
