An important way of doing this is to pray through the year for the Porvoo churches and their Dioceses. The Prayer Diary 2015 can now be downloaded here. Feel free to share it widely!

Porvoo Communion grows as two Churches signed the Porvoo agreement
On September 19th the Latvian Evangelical Lutheran Church Abroad and the Lutheran Church in Great Britain signed the Porvoo Declaration, during a solemn celebration of the Eucharist, at which the Most Revd Antje Jackelén preached and the Most Revd Dr John Sentamu presided, concluding the Porvoo Communion Leadership Conference. Those who signed were Archbishop Elmars Ernsts Rozitis and Bishop Martin Lind. The two churches were welcomed as the newest members of the Porvoo Communion.
