Resources for the 2025 Week of Prayer for Christian Unity are becoming available to order and download.
Do you believe this?
For 2025, materials were prepared by the ecumenical community at Bose in Northern Italy.
As we celebrate 1,700 years since the Council of Nicaea, the worship service has at its heart, the Nicene Creed. Reflecting this, the scripture readings for this year focus on belief.
We are invited to reflect on the story of Martha’s confession of faith in Jesus as narrated in John 11:17-27. Each is called to sit with Jesus’ provocative question to Martha: “Do you believe this?”
Resources
For 2025, we are making the resources available both as downloads and printed versions that can be ordered. The pamphlet will be available in English, Welsh/English, Irish and Scots Gaelic. The poster has been produced as a mulitilingual version and an English only version. Details will be included on the resources page as they become available.

Dates
The Week of Prayer for Christian Unity is traditionally observed from the 18th to the 25th January – the octave of St. Peter and St. Paul. However, some areas observe it at Pentecost or some other time.
Christian Aid
Each year Christian Aid provides the Go and Do action points for each of the daily reflections – linking into the important work of Christian Aid in the relief of poverty and advocacy of justice.
