The Groton World Day of Prayer committee invites you to join us on Friday, March 1, at 9am at Emmanuel Lutheran church, as we look for a Christian response on ways to welcome the stranger within our community. Although the program is written by women (this year women from France), it is open to men as well. o we encourage all to join us on Friday March 1, at 9  a.m. at Emmanuel Lutheran Church for a shortened program, followed with coffee, juice and rolls.
