You may have seen reported in the media a special invitation that Pope Francis has extended for all Christians to unite together in prayer on March 25th at 12:00 noon. March 25th is a day on which the Roman Catholic Church commemorates the annunciation of the Angel Gabriel to Mary with the beautiful announcement that she would be the mother of the Son of God. Pope Francis has stated,
“
I invite all the Heads of Churches and the leaders of all the Christian Communities, together with all the Christians of the various Confessions, to invoke the Most High, Almighty God, reciting contemporaneously the prayer that Jesus Our Lord taught us. I invite all, therefore, to do so several times a day, but, all together, to recite the Our Father next Wednesday, March 25, at midday – all together.”
I am suggesting that we pray the prayer at noon, local time, but the prayer also can be said at noon Rome time, or at any other time of the day.
