31 Days of Prayer: Health and Wholeness

On January 1st, we kicked off the “31 Days of Prayer for Children.” EGM is spending the month of January praying for boys and girls around the world in a specific way each day.

On this episode of “Better Children’s Ministry,” Daniel and Kelli talk about one of our prayers – that children grow up with health and wholeness. Daniel points us to Jesus’ own childhood and the many layers of meaning in the word “wholeness.”

We encourage you to join us for the rest of our time in prayer this month! You can sign up to receive daily emails with specific prayers here:
