Pray-a-thon 2022
What is Pray-a-thon?
In the spring of 2009, a UIW student created the first 24-hour Pray-a-thon as a way to more fully immerse the UIW campus into deeper prayer in anticipation of Easter. What began as 24 hours of prayer has evolved into a week-long “Pray-a-thon” filled with opportunities to experience prayer in different forms, expressions, and traditions.
Today, Pray-a-thon is celebrated annually as a week-long celebration – Sunday to Sunday – in conjunction with the Feast of the Annunciation, March 25th, otherwise known as Incarnate Word Day. This year it will take place from March 20-27, 2022. While some events will find a place in our chapels, a hallmark of Pray-a-thon has been to take prayer to the people in unique and creative ways.
