Prayers for Kenya

Your sponsorship is changing lives by embodying Christ’s love in Kenya! We encourage you to keep your sponsored child and their family, community and center staff in your prayers as we continue partnering together to release children from poverty in Jesus’ name. Here are some specific ways you can pray for your sponsored child in Kenya.

Pray for the global food crisis in Kenya.

Pray for guidance, provision and abundance as we work to combat the global food crisis in Kenya. Pray that Compassion leaders and staff will have wisdom in stewarding resources and gathering support. Pray that we, as the Body of Christ, will come together so that we can nourish, strengthen and provide for sponsored children and communities across Kenya.

Pray for the safety and growth of your sponsored child in Kenya.

Pray for your sponsored child’s community and region. As Kenya combats food crisis, drought and poverty, pray for safe conditions for all sponsored children and staff. Pray that your sponsored child is surrounded by friends, family and staff members who can nurture them with love, support and encouragement.

Pray that the local church can nurture and uplift your sponsored child.

Pray that each sponsored child’s heart would be open and accepting of the love and support the Compassion program provides through the local church. Pray that the staff members, program activities and ministry will uniquely speak to your sponsored child and show them the love of Christ.

Pray for your sponsored child’s parents or caregivers.

Pray that Compassion is a blessing to parents and caregivers of sponsored children in Kenya. Pray that parents and caregivers are a source of love and support for their children and that the Holy Spirit would move in their lives as they experience Christ’s love through the Compassion program. Pray that Compassion is able to uniquely provide for each parent and caregiver amid food crisis and drought as they support their families.

Pray for staff and volunteers in Kenya.

As staff and volunteers work to provide for children in Kenya, especially in times of crisis, pray that God will work in their lives to equip and motivate them to show sponsored children the love of Christ. Pray for wisdom and guidance for Compassion’s church partners and leaders so that all needs are met with abundance and all resources are stewarded wisely to optimize effective and life-changing programs. Pray for continued inspiration and encouragement as Compassion seeks new ways to release children from poverty in Jesus’s name.
