The Council of Elders has made a change in the frequency of the Call to Prayer. Until Advent, the Council of Elders will share a monthly, rather than weekly, Call to Prayer. This will provide some relief to our volunteer translators and staff who have been preparing the weekly prayers. In Advent, the Elders will provide a weekly video and written prayer reflection. Thank you to everyone who has submitted a prayer over the last several years and to those who have shared the prayers with their congregations. Thank you also to our volunteer translators in Portuguese, Spanish and German for all of their work, and to MCC staff member, Janine McCarthy, who has prepared the prayers and distributed them.
