This 10-day prayer journey is designed for all children everywhere, but especially for children under the age of 13 and others who want to pray with them. Together, we want to discover the amazing stories Jesus told and to join believers around the world in united prayer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From Friday 17th October to Sunday 26th October, each day of the guide focuses on a powerful theme - like Lost, Peace, Treasure, Courage, and Future. Children will read one of Jesus\u2019 parables, reflect on it, pray a simple Spirit-led prayer, and enjoy fun action ideas they can do at home. There\u2019s also a short memory verse each day, plus a worship song to sing along with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can use this guide as a personal or family devotion time in the morning, at bedtime or when you pray with others. Each page is packed with color, creativity, and opportunities to grow in prayer together<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignright size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"688\" height=\"676\" src=\"https:\/\/110cities.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Content-Pics01.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4127\" style=\"width:396px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/110cities.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Content-Pics01.jpg 688w, https:\/\/110cities.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Content-Pics01-350x344.jpg 350w, https:\/\/110cities.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Content-Pics01-12x12.jpg 12w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 688px) 100vw, 688px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>And here\u2019s something really special - the prayers of children are a BIG part of a global move of prayer! Every day, adults around the world are also praying - especially for the Hindu world, that children and families will come to know Jesus, the true Light of the World. This Guide is designed to help children find simple ways to join in with these global prayers, lifting their voices in unity with believers around the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We believe God will speak to and through children as they pray - and will inspire parents and other adults as they join them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So grab your Bibles, and some colouring pens, and maybe even a bowl of snacks\u2026 because this October, we\u2019re going on an adventure with Jesus\u2019 stories together!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As John 8:12 reminds us:<br><em>\u201cI am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s pray, play, and praise - together as God\u2019s Big Worldwide family!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our prayer is that you will be blessed and encouraged as you spend these 10 days with us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The IPC \/ 2BC Team<\/strong><\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":4126,"parent":0,"template":"","class_list":["post-4119","children-hindu-guide","type-children-hindu-guide","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"featured_image_src":"https:\/\/110cities.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Intro-bg.jpg","ams_acf":[{"key":"children_hindu_prayer_guide_dates","label":"Children Hindu Prayer Guide Dates","value":""},{"key":"children_hindu_prayer_guide_dates_copy","label":"Children Hindu Prayer Guide Theme","value":""},{"key":"children_hindu_prayer_guide_theme_description","label":"Children Hindu Prayer Guide Theme description","value":""},{"key":"children_hindu_prayer_guide_welcome_message","label":"Children Hindu Prayer Guide Welcome Message","value":""},{"key":"children_hindu_prayer_guide_read_the_story","label":"Children Hindu Prayer Guide Read the Story","value":""},{"key":"children_hindu_prayer_guide_story_intro","label":"Children Hindu Prayer Guide Story Intro","value":""},{"key":"children_hindu_prayer_guide_lets_think_about_it","label":"Children Hindu Prayer Guide Lets think about it","value":""},{"key":"children_hindu_prayer_guide_lets_pray_together","label":"Children Hindu Prayer Guide Lets Pray Together","value":""},{"key":"children_hindu_prayer_guide_grown_ups","label":"Children Hindu Prayer Guide Grown Ups","value":""},{"key":"children_hindu_prayer_guide_lets_pray_1","label":"Children Hindu Prayer Guide Lets Pray 1","value":""},{"key":"children_hindu_prayer_guide_lets_pray_2","label":"Children Hindu Prayer Guide Lets Pray 2","value":""},{"key":"children_hindu_prayer_guide_justin_though","label":"Children Hindu Prayer Guide Justin Though","value":""},{"key":"children_hindu_prayer_guide_memory_verse","label":"Children Hindu Prayer Guide Memory Verse","value":""},{"key":"children_hindu_prayer_guide_action_idea","label":"Children Hindu Prayer Guide Action Idea","value":""},{"key":"children_hindu_prayer_guide_video","label":"Children Hindu Prayer Guide Video","value":""},{"key":"children_hindu_prayer_guide_photo","label":"Children Hindu Prayer Guide Photo","value":false}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/110cities.com\/en_gb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/children-hindu-guide\/4119","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/110cities.com\/en_gb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/children-hindu-guide"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/110cities.com\/en_gb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/children-hindu-guide"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/110cities.com\/en_gb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4126"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/110cities.com\/en_gb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4119"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
