IDOP 2008

Here are some special materials designed for children which will help them understand some of the realities of persecuted Christians and encourage them to pray. They have been prepared especially for IDOP by highly gifted children's educator, Ann Connan.

There are two sets of material:

5 pages for juniors (around ages 4-9) click here for the file

5 pages for seniors (around ages 9-13) click here for the file

(If you encounter a problem accessing these PDF files, try using the Firefox browser.
Or for a copy.)

Each set includes stories (from the Bible, as well as from church history and contemporary times)and related activities. These materials can be used not only for IDOP but for a children's teaching program on the subject of persecution and praying for the persecuted.

Each of these are Adobe Reader files which can easily be printed out for distribution to Sunday School classes or for use in home devotions or in other situations.

WEA RLC trusts this material will assist in training disciples
who will be both courageously persevering and compassionately prayerful, for the glory of God.

(We are grateful to Ann Connan [Training Consultant for the Council of Christian Education in Schools, Victoria, Australia; T.P.T.C., Cert. of Education (Integration), Cert. of Christian Education] for making these excellent materials available to children worldwide.)
