  • Porvoo Prayer Diary 2017
    PORVOO PRAYER DIARY 2017 The Porvoo Declaration commits the churches which have signed it ‘to share a common life’ and ‘to pray for and with one another’. An important way of doing this is to pray through the year for the Porvoo churches and their Dioceses. The Prayer Diary is a list of Porvoo Communion Dioceses or churches covering each Sunday of the year, mindful of the many calls upon compilers of intercessions, and the environmental and production costs of printing a more elaborate list. Those using the calendar are invited to choose one day each week on which they will pray for the Porvoo churches. It is hoped that individuals and parishes, cathedrals and religious orders will make use of the Calendar in their own cycle of prayer week by week. In addition to the churches which have approved the Porvoo Declaration, we continue to pray for churches with observer status. Observers attend all the meetings held under the Agreement. The Calendar may be freely copied or emailed for wider circulation. JANUARY 1/1 Church of England: Diocese of Chichester, Bishop Martin Warner, Bishop Mark Sowerby, ​ Bishop Richard Jackson Evangelical Lutheran Church in Finland: Diocese of Mikkeli, Bishop Seppo Häkkinen ​ ​ ​ 8/1 Church of England: Diocese of London, Bishop Richard Chartres, Bishop Adrian Newman, ​ Bishop Graham Tomlin, Bishop Pete Broadbent, Bishop Rob Wickham, Bishop Jonathan ​ Baker, Bishop Ric Thorpe Church of Norway: Diocese of Nidaros/ New see and Trondheim, Presiding Bishop Helga ​ Haugland Byfuglien, Bishop Tor Singsaas 15/1 Evangelical Lutheran Church in Finland: Diocese of Oulu, Bishop Samuel Salmi ​ Church of Norway: Diocese of Soer-Hålogaland (Bodoe), Bishop Ann-Helen Fjeldstad Jusnes ​ Church of England: Diocese of Coventry, Bishop Christopher Cocksworth, Bishop John ​ Stroyan.
