a) Praying for the Children’s ministry
Luke 18:15-16 (ESV) “Now they were bringing even infants to him that he might touch them… But Jesus called them to him, saying, “Let the children come to me, and do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of God.”

3. Pray that our children will not depart from God’s ways when they grow up, according to Proverbs 22:6.
4. Pray that all those who pledged to support the construction works for the Children’s Center will be faithful to honour their pledges.

Pray that other people will also come in to support the construction of the Center to completion.
