You can find out about local services on the WDP website, as well as lots more information about the country, the theme, and the global movement that is WDP.
Here's a lovely prayer written by my friend Louise Bowes, Northern Ireland Rep of the National WDP Committee
COME
The invitation is given, COME:
Children, Older folk, Middle-aged, Everyone.
Children, Older folk, Middle-aged, Everyone.
However, excuses are made with precision.
Exclusion is chosen instead of inclusion.
But the invitation is extended with power and grace,
Through God’s spirit to every heart.
May there be no foolish excuses.

Father God, shake us out of
complacency to do our part,
To share your heart, your love, and tell of your forgiveness.
May we sense the urgency to share your invitation,
With family, friends and neighbours,
And invite them to our community and to the feast.

No matter where you have been
Or what you have done,
The Lord invites YOU, he says COME.

That is a wonderful piece of writing! I love it!
