Do good; seek justice (Isaiah 1:17) Learning to do right requires the decision to engage in self-reflection. The Week of Prayer is the perfect time for Christians to recognize that the divisions between our churches cannot be separated from the divisions within the wider human family. Praying together allows us to reflect on what unites us and to commit ourselves to confront oppression and division. A group of Christians in Minnesota USA prepared the theme for this year.

Christian Unity Week
The night before his Passion and Death,
Jesus said:
“May they all be one, just as,
Father, you are in me and
I am in you” Jn 17:21
Each year from 18-25th January,
Christians unite around the world to
pray for this great desire of the heart of
Jesus—that we may all be one.
Here at Kilmacud Carmelite Monastery
we dedicate our Evening Prayer at
4.30pm for this intention each day
during the Week of Prayer.

THEME
RESOURCES
Learning to do the
right thing
When justice
is done…
Do justice,
love mercy,
walk humbly
Look, the tears
of the oppressed
Singing the Lord’s
song as strangers
in the land
Just as you did it
to one of the
least of these…
you did it to me.
‘What is now does
not have to be’
The justice that
restores communion
