The 2016 World Weekend of Prayer for children at risk

The 2016 World Weekend of Prayer for children at risk

You and your church can join us for this global campaign, which unites hundreds of thousands of people across more than 40 countries in prayer.

The theme this year is ‘small but mighty’.

God uses children to change nations. No one is too small or insignificant in his eyes! The Bible is full of children who have been used by God, and of children who’ve overcome the odds to become great men and women of God.

Today, children are born into situations of great risk of abuse, trafficking, disease, disaster, early death – yet are being used by God to share his love and to change society.

Let’s empower the children in our churches to lead us in prayer. Let’s make them more visible and listen to them.

The WWP 2016 pack includes:

  • Activity ideas for children, teenagers and all-age services
  • Six-part Bible study series
  • 35-day prayer diary leading up to the event
  • A song with score and YouTube clip
  • An editable poster for you to advertise your WWP event
  • A prayer postcard

These resources will be available to download from the website www.worldweekendofprayer.com from March, with some materials available by post on request to people in the UK.

We'd love to hear if you're planning to take part this year - simply reply to this email.

Please save the date and join us wherever you are on 4-5 June as we turn to God together in prayer for a change of attitude and action by communities towards their children.
