There are at least 100 million children who live or work on the streets of our cities. Father, increase the ministries to these children that they would find comfort and shelter. Two thirds of the estimated 130 million children in the world who have no access to primary education are girls. God, we ask you to increase opportunities for girls to go to school and that Compassion's ministry would expand to reach more children. Father, by your Spirit, reveal Jesus' salvation to the hearts of children, and may your love reach them.
Children lose hope and want to give up after severe traumatic experiences.
Father, we ask for hope and faith to be born in these precious ones - may a Christian brother or sister find them and show them God's love. Jesus, heal the broken souls of children. May justice arise and protect young girls and boys. The official figures for the world's refugees now stands at over 19 million and more than half of them are children. Father, we ask you to provide homes for these families and children.
