What You Should Know About This Prayer Session
The Prayer Service takes place during UNGA, when world leaders convene in New York to discuss pressing international issues, including child welfare.
Children around the world are increasingly vulnerable due to conflicts, climate change, health crises, and poverty. Gathering voices of faith and humanitarian leadership help spotlight both challenges and solutions.
Thus, themes like resilience, hope, compassion, and spiritual life are especially relevant in times when many societies are struggling with mental health issues, displacement, and inequality.
