To convert the water flow rate from cubic meters per day to liters per week, we can follow these steps:

1. **Convert cubic meters to liters:**
\[
1 \text{ m}^3 = 1000 \text{ L}
\]
Therefore,
\[
4 \text{ m}^3 = 4 \times 1000 \text{ L} = 4000 \text{ L per day}
\]

2. **Calculate the flow rate in liters per week:**
Since there are 7 days in a week, we multiply the daily flow rate by 7:
\[
4000 \text{ L/day} \times 7 \text{ days} = 28000 \text{ L/week}
\]

Thus, the rate of flow in liters per week is:
\[
\boxed{28000 \text{ liters per week}}
\]
