The United Nations Millennium Development Goals are ambitious targets, but meeting them would see extreme poverty halved, inequalities challenged, diseases drastically reduced and people working together to do it. Most importantly for us, the lives of millions of children would be changed for the better.
However, the global community is significantly behind in meeting these goals, and we need to pray that God would intervene and make good our efforts to help children all over the world live the life that he has planned for them.
This child-friendly resource helps you use the themes of the Millennium Development Goals to pray for children at risk around the world over eight weeks, offering:
- Daily prayer guides for each topic
- Thoughtful writing and craft activities
- Real children’s stories
- Weekly challenges to complete
You can use it on your own or with your family, or take it into your church, small group, or school. It’s a great way to guide the prayers of adults and children alike as together we call on our powerful God to restore our hurting world.
