Missionary Kids

28. DEAF PEOPLES.

“I’m a biology major, and I have some tough classes. Please pray that I can pass everything and raise my GPA this semester. School is stressful for me.” Caleb, 20, U.S.

27. MISSIONARY KIDS.

MKs can experience emotional challenges from being the foreigner in a place. Some are even bullied. Pray for the Holy Spirit to comfort them and give their families and team’s wisdom with how to help.

Pray for 6- year-old Sophia to make friends in her new country and learn to love her new home. May she sense her need to repent from sin and turn to Jesus as her Savior. 

25. MISSIONARY KIDS.

Sometimes when young adult MKs graduate and leave their home and parents, they follow worldly lifestyles. Ask God to draw them to Himself. Pray that He will give comfort and wisdom to the missionary parents in their grief and in their prayers for their kids.

24. SOUTH ASIA.

Many South Asian schools are officially secular, but Hindu, Muslim, and Buddhist content can still appear in class activities. Pray for MKs at these schools to have the discernment to recognize idolatry, and to have the conviction and boldness to be different from their peers by not participating.

Pray that pre-school-age MKs will feel comforted as they encounter new things. Pray that they will grow in their knowledge of how to handle their emotions and communicate their feelings.

Shawn is starting kindergarten and is still learning the local language. Please pray that he adjusts well to school and continues to pick up the language.

20. MISSIONARY KIDS.

As teenage MKs and their parents have conversations about college plans, pray for clear and unified communication. Ask God for wisdom and discernment as they make decisions.

19. EUROPE.

Helping their family with ministry is normal life for many MKs. To experience missions in other places, MKs in Europe can take summer mission trips to places other than where their family serves with the IMB. Pray for those who are preparing for this year’s summer mission trip.

18. ASIA-PACIFIC RIM.

A 5-year-old MK in Southeast Asia struggles with sensory issues and is working on interacting peaceably with his brothers. Pray that he will grow in communication skills. Pray for continued strength and wisdom for his parents.

Pray that young MKs learn a firm foundation at home that will help them when they are overwhelmed with all the changes going on around them.
