Week of Prayer for Christian Unity / La Semaine de prière pour l'unité des chrétiens

Week of Prayer for Christian Unity 2023

The Week of Prayer for Christian Unity is a time when Christians of different denominations come together to pray for unity among all believers in Jesus Christ. It is an ecumenical event that is open to people of all denominations, and it is an opportunity to celebrate the unity that already exists among Christians and to pray for greater unity in the future.

La Semaine de prière pour l'unité des chrétiens est un moment où les chrétiens de différentes dénominations se réunissent pour prier pour l'unité entre tous les croyants en Jésus-Christ. Il s'agit d'un événement œcuménique ouvert aux personnes de toutes les dénominations, et c'est l'occasion de célébrer l'unité qui existe déjà entre les chrétiens et de prier pour une plus grande unité à l'avenir.
