Week of Prayer for Christian Unity




In January we took part in the Week of Prayer for Christian Unity. For 8 days we attended services in different churches around Bucharest. On the Friday evening it was our turn to host the service and it was a wonderful experience to see our church totally full (more than full actually) with over a hundred people of differing faithes and nationalities. Our Chaplain, Martin, hosted the service and representatives of the Romanian Orthodox, Armenian Orthodox, Roman Catholic, Greek Catholic, German Lutheran, and Hungarian Reformed churches all took part in the liturgy.

The photographs show the clergy at various stages of the service. Particularly moving was the Sharing of the Peace.
