Compassion Prayer Calender

Calling all prayer warriors! Prayer is so important. And sometimes its one of the only tools we have to fight global poverty and suffering. You can sign up to receive Compassion's monthly prayer calendar and pray each day for children around the world. These prayer requests are sent in from Compassion's country offices for very specific children and their specific needs. By signing up, you will be joining over 18,000 people praying for these children. Here is September's calendar...a few days late, but still plenty of month left.
