The Woman's Christian Temperance Union has always had a designated time of prayer - "Noontide Prayer." As noon comes around the world, members lift their prayers to God. This means that there is a continuous circle of prayer at all times.

Please support the following with your prayers:

  • PRAY for our politicians as they consider the Senate Reports on the Alcohol Toll Reduction Bill and Alcopops and discuss strategies to combat the binge drinking culture in Australia.
  • PRAY that the NHMRC (proposed new drinking guidelines); FSANZ (FAS warning labels on alcohol containers); and Federal and State Governments; will stand firm on policies that are based on solid research, and not be swayed by pressure from liquor interests. Pray that they will quickly put measures in place to save the next generation and not delay.
  • PRAY – that women will be bold to speak up for what is truth about the dangers of alcohol, tobacco and drugs
  • PRAY – that more materials will be readily available to share to get the message out clearly
  • PRAY – for wisdom and energy of all leaders of WCTU that they might know the direction to take to inspire and lead
  • PRAY – for those women who have become disheartened about their influence and pray that they will be revived
  • PRAY – for the children in our nation that they will be kept from the evil and saved for the good and that they will turn away from alcohol, tobacco and drugs
  • PRAY – for the schools in our nation that principals and teachers will accept the messages of WCTU when it comes to them.
  • Thank God for the safe travel of Dawn Giddings, Glenda Amos and the delegates to the 1st National Convention of the WCTU in PNG. PRAY that the women will be empowered to make a difference in the communities where they live.
