Equipping Parents: New Christians Leading their Children to Christ
When people become Christians, their first prayer is for their children to discover faith in Christ.
“I want to make sure our three boys become followers of Jesus,” said Anton, who gave his life to Jesus in September. “I can’t imag- ine them living without Him, like I did.”
We are equipping parents throughout Eurasia to support their children and embark on their own journeys of faith.
We encourage them to pray with their little ones and read the Bible together. Many mothers, like Svitlana in Kyiv, are themselves praying for the first time:
“Saying words addressed to God out loud, with my two boys sitting beside me, was one of the most amazing experiences I’ve had in years.”
In Muslim countries, what often makes a difference for children is when parents introduce them to media materials that we produce. These children respond well to stories that are full of pictures that explain the Gospel.
In Ukraine, we produced more than 100 programs for parents to be able to minister to their children during the war, helping them find out who Jesus is in the midst of fear and suffering.
Jesus cared about children. We know you do too. Thank you for caring.
