What an amazing night of unity! I am glad that we were able to come together to worship and pray for the persecuted church. Here are some resources if you want to learn more about it:
1. The Voice of the Martyrs
The Voice of the Martyrs offers many resources and ways to support Christians who are being persecuted around the globe. They offer prayer maps, newsletters encouraging you to pray about current events, and a chance to write letters to Christians who are being held prisoner because of their faith. They have a website for children called Kids of Courage. I would recommend looking through to see if it is age appropriate for your child.
2. Operation World
Operation World offers prayer guides for every nation. A number of the countries have videos that you can watch to learn more about how to pray specifically. (I would preview before showing some to children.) I would highly recommend starting with the 60 Days of Prayer!
3. 7 Things to pray for Missionaries
This blog is based on Paul's charge to Timothy. (see 2 Tim. 2:1-7) It includes 7 simple ways to pray for missionaries.
