In Summerside, Prince Edward Island, the World Day of Prayer grew out of the United Missionary Meeting held yearly by the Womens' Missionary Societies of the different Summerside churches. This group met every year since 1916 alternating amongst the member churches. In 1934 the annual meeting began coinciding with the World Day of Prayer.
