The theme was provided by the founders from the Republic of Suriname. The prayer is held yearly on the first Friday in March. Opening with a reading from Genesis, Mrs Pretorius from the AFM Church reminded the attendees that God created us in his image and that God holds us accountable for how we care for the environment and all living things.

Everyone had the opportunity to participate in the service with either a prayer or a reading from the Bible.

Some of the prayer points were – good stewards of God’s creation, solidarity, help to become advocates of a better country, and for the leadership of our town and country among others. The afternoon was enjoyed by all.
