The least of you will become a thousand, the smallest a mighty nation. I am the Lord; in its time I will do this swiftly.' (Isaiah 60: 22)

God uses children to change nations. No one is too small or insignificant in his eyes! The Bible is full of children used by God and 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 2016 World Weekend of Prayer for children at risk campaign on 4-5 June has the theme: "Small but mighty".

Our desire is to turn to God together in prayer for a change of attitude and action by all communities around the world towards their children.

We're calling on Christians wherever they are that weekend to join us in praying that:

• Children who feel neglected and forgotten would experience lasting change in their lives, receiving genuine love and compassion.
• God would turn around the thoughts and actions of those adults who look down on, ignore or even despise children.
• Child leaders would be raised up and anointed as ambassadors for Christ: committed in prayer, selfless in action and spiritual in their decisions.

We would love for World Prayer Centre to stand with us that weekend and be part of this global prayer campaign.

Would you be able to promote the event through your member/supporter networks, on your website, email communications or through social media?
