This month, will you pray that thankfulness will continue to overflow in the hearts of the children and families who are part of Compassion? Pray for moments in which they will see God’s grace. And let’s pray for each other. That each of our lives will be filled with a spirit of gratitude, and that each day will be filled with moments of thankfulness.
Thank you, as always, for your commitment to lifting up millions of children in your prayers this month. You are making a difference. And we are thankful.
