For children living in poverty, there is often no safety net. Hunger, disease and disaster are constantly pressing in.

That’s why prayer matters so much.

When faced with the challenges posed by poverty, prayer is a lifeline. Every month, our staff around the world sends us prayer requests on behalf of the children we serve. The requests are for children who are sick, for families that are fractured, for the lost to be found — for miracles.

It is an honor to lift up those requests. And we want to invite you to join us in praying for children in poverty. As a member of Compassion’s Prayer Network, you will receive a monthly calendar filled with daily requests from around the world.
