2. Captain a Prayer Circle
Prayerline Kids Prayer Circle is a ministry platform
that fits into your existing church curriculum. The goal
is to assist churches as they encourage parents to mentor
their children in daily prayer for people in need of the
gospel. With educational resources like Prayerline for
Kids, a monthly prayer guide published by Christian
Aid Mission, leading Prayerline Kids Circle Time is a
breeze for teachers. Mentoring youth in prayer focused
on God’s agenda will have
profound impact on the
family and the destiny of
the next generation. Each
daily prayer request only
requires a few moments
of class time, but it will
enrich lives. Captain
a weekly Prayerline Kids Prayer Circle and build a
foundation for a lifetime of prayer that’s mission focused.
It’s that simple!
Each monthly issue
features seven educational
mission activities in
diverse places of the
world, exposing youth
to different indigenous
cultures. By incorporating
a map, circle times are
an ideal way to learn
geography and social studies in the context of caring for
our Christian brothers and sisters laboring in difficult
places.
It was Prayerline for Kids that initiated a home schooler
field trip to Christian Aid Mission headquarters.
Christopher, an astute, friendly 11-year-old expressed,
“Prayerline for Kids gets you thinking about things you
wouldn’t even think of otherwise.” When asked which
story touched his heart the most, he said it was the one
about Angela, the little orphan girl from the Ukraine, who
was his age, but only weighed 54 pounds and was a mere
3 ½ feet tall. “I’m praying that the doctors can help her to
grow. If I could talk to her, I would like to tell her that she
can call on Jesus for anything. She could even ask for a
mom and dad.”
Angela
Father’s House staff writes,
“Since Angela started medical treatments
she is becoming more confident
and has hope for the future.”

-Inform parents about Answers for Prayerline for
Kids on the website -where kids can see how the
need was met.
Kids Desire to Make a Difference in the World
Investing energy for the advancement of the gospel and
caring for the needs of others is a proven way for godly
transformation in young minds. Plus, kids love it when
their friends and family are in prayer for the same exact
need each day of the week. It generates a contagious
synergy for prayer—uniting the family and community
around action to engage unreached people groups.
The dynamic influence of group prayer and Spirit-led
community action encourage youth to see that they can
make a difference in their world. When you captain a
Prayerline Kids Circle, you give a godly touch to the
future of each child, your local community, our nation
and the world.
Christopher was so proud to show Jackie
his Prayerline Kids notebook

BOLIVIA, South America*
SUNDAY—We usually don’t give electricity a thought until we lose it
during a storm. But many Quechua people living in the Andes Mountains
have never had electricity. That is why Quechua Evangelistic Outreach
missionaries must only hold evangelistic meetings, Bible studies and
discipleship classes during the daylight hours. Solar panel equipment would
make it possible for the rural churches to have lights at night. We can
give a gift and turn the lights on. Gift Code: 270QEO-9K
TAJIKISTAN, Central Asia
MONDAY—Find the seven countries in Central Asia that
end with the word “stan” on a map: Afghanistan, Kazakhstan,
Kyrgyzstan, Pakistan,
Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and
Uzbekistan. “Stan” means
“land,” so “Tajikistan” simply
means “land of the Tajiks.”
Christians in Tajikistan have
friends and relatives in
Afghanistan and travel freely
across the border. Pray for
funds to train Christian Tajiks
to be missionaries for Afghanistan. Gift Code: 467UCF-9K
RUSSIA, Eurasia
TUESDAY—Young missionary teams are
traveling all over Russia, placing four New
Testaments in every village that has no
church. Slavik, a gospel preacher, wants to
purchase 100,000 New Testaments for his
“One Year for Jesus” project. Excitedly
he writes, “We must move quickly to
guarantee the current price of 50 cents
per copy.” Working together, Christians in
the U.S. can have a part in reaching this
goal. Gift Code: 361BIB-9K
INDIA, South Asia*
WEDNESDAY—What is a mudslide? It is not a fun
children’s slide, but a dangerous movement of earth down
a steep hill due to too much rain.
Mudslides can bury cars, buildings
and even kill people. In Northern
India heavy monsoon rains caused
a huge landslide. Christians found
their old Jeep used for mission
work buried under the debris.
The insurance did not cover the
repairs. Christian Aid wants to
help with these expenses. Gift Code: 660HIM-9K
CHAD, Africa
THURSDAY—The Good Samaritan
discovered a man beaten and left for
dead by armed robbers. Unlike the other
travelers, he stopped to help. We have a
chance to be a “Good Samaritan.” Idriss,
leader of Life of God Ministries, reported
the death of a missionary killed by armed
robbers. Join Idriss in praying for the
widow and her children. Gifts sent will help
buy food ($35 for a sack of bean, corn, or
rice) for the family. Gift Code: 512LGM-9K
CHILE, South America*
SATURDAY—Autumn is a lovely time of
year when the leaves begin to change
colors in North America. But in South
America the spring season is starting
now. Chile Evangelical Mission works for
the Lord in every season. They spring
into action to share the gospel through
both open-air meetings and door-to-door
evangelism. This includes visiting the sick
and working among tribal people. CEM
needs 300 Bibles ($8 each) to distribute
during upcoming events. Gift Code: 275CEM-9K
PHILIPPINES, Pacific Asia*
FRIDAY—Filipino missionaries with Child Evangelism go
where the children are. Every year they conduct VBS,
camps, and mission trips. They also show films, teach
in children’s homes,
evangelize at farms,
playgrounds, and
basketball courts.
Getting around to places
is hard because they
have to carry all their
teaching materials by way of public transportation. If
they had a motorized tricycle, they could transport their
teaching materials with ease. Gift Code: 801CELS-K
Prayerline Kids: Adventures in Faith
Quechua Kids have Big Dreams Too
Prayerline Kids make the world a better place! In this month’s issue of Prayerline for
Kids, read how many Quechua (pronunciation: [ˈketch wa]) people living in the Andes Mountains have
never had electricity. Can you tell why these Quechua Kids don’t have electricity in their houses? Yet,
look at their faces. Do you think just maybe these kids might be excited about a new school year? Like you,
Quechua kids have big dreams for the future. Pray that more Quechua kids, like John, will receive Christ.
Also, in this school year would you like to learn about kids in different lands with your friends? Ask your
parents to download information on how your church can start a Prayerline Kids Circle for free at www.
prayerlinekids.com.
Ruth lives at the Quechua village of
Andabamba located three hours by
car and an additional hour walking
from the closest town.
Emerson was surprised
when he heard that a
ministry on behalf of
Christian Aid brought
a present for him. Very
moved, he opened the
package and found his
school supplies. He
reported that this is the first
time that he ever received
a present.
John walks one hour from his village to arrive
at our meeting hall at Culluhuancca. He was
so happy to receive his school supplies. John
walks one hour and a half from Monday through
Friday to attend school.
