Universal Week of Prayer

Meetings in connection with the above, organised by the World's Evangelical Alliance in 1846, and which has been observed in Buntingford for the past 30 years, were held during the first week of the New Year.

The appointed subjects for prayer, which were being remembered by Christians in all parts of the world, included Thanksgiving and Humiliation, the Universal Church, Nations and Governments, Home and Foreign Missions, and our Young People.

Prayer was led on successive days by a short address from Rev. A. Howard, Rev. J. Cole, Rev. E.E. Empringham, Mr H. May, and Capt. W. Green.

The meetings were well attended, and were noticeable for an atmosphere of fellowship and unity.
