World Day of Prayer coming to Blyth March 4 World Day of Prayer 2016, written by the World Day of Prayer Committee of Cuba and the Christian Women in Socialist Cuba, entitled "Receive children. Receive me", will take place on March 4. The National Flower of Cuba is the white butterfly jasmine. Cuban women have used the flower not only as an adornment for their hair, but also to transmit messages during liberation wars, and as a sign of their being Cuban. There can be no better emblem for the 2016 World Day of Prayer service written by the World Day of Prayer committee of Cuba. The service transmits their witness and experience of being Cuban and Christian, even when their faith meant isolation within the country they love. With the triumph of the Revolution, a trade embargo by the United States brought Cuba eco- nomic isolation with material scarci- ty. Within Cuba a similar isolation formed around people of faith in the officially atheist state. Now the embargo is lifting, but uncertainty remains for the Cuban people. What can these women tell the rest of the world about how faith endures in a secular world, of material and social challenges, and of hope? On March 4, Christians in more than 170 countries and in 2,000 communities across Canada will gather to learn about, pray for, and celebrate Cuba in solidarity with the women of Cuba through the World Day of Prayer. Please join us and invite your friends and family to attend the World Day of Prayer 2016. A local World Day of Prayer service will be held at Blyth United Church on March 4 at 7 p.m. The World Day of Prayer has its roots in an ecumenical day of prayer organized by women in Canada and the United States in 1920. This event became the international World Day of Prayer in 1922, and Christians around the world began celebrating this event on the first Friday of March. Business Directory D. C.
