 Daily Prayer for Child Refugees 1:00pm (Any time zone will do!)
  
   United Methodist Women works for immigration justice with United   Methodist and other partners every day. Those currently arriving at the   southern border of the U.S. - many of whom are children - need our   assistance.
  Each day at 1 p.m. (any time zone will do!) say a prayer for a just and  peaceful resolution to this humanitarian crisis and the children and  families affected by our current immigration and deportation policies.
