For families

Children & Families

Children pray, and often they pray with a directness the rest of us have to learn again. These are things to print, colour, watch and study together — at the kitchen table, in family worship, or in a children’s group.

A Year of Praying for the World

Two books that work together: color a region, read about the peoples who live there, and pray for them the same week.

Ethnê World Changers’ Prayer Handbook

A prayer handbook written for young people to use themselves — why we pray, how to begin, and then region by region through the year, with maps, photographs, facts and prayers for the least-reached peoples of each part of the world. 164 pages. Compiled by members of the Ethnê prayer work group.

The Twelve Regions Colouring Book

Twelve printable pages, one for each of the regions the fellowship prays through, with the countries drawn large and plain to colour in and a prayer at the foot of each page. Print the whole book, or a page at a time to match the region you are praying for.

Watch Together

Why Pray? — a short film, and a good opening for a conversation with children about what prayer is and why we do it.

Read and Study Together

Ethnê Testimonies, by Region

Written testimonies from around the world, arranged region by region. Read one alongside the region your family is colouring and praying for.

Living Stones

A Bible study written for children at home, from Living Stones Study — simple resources for families who want faith to grow deep and steady, with material to work through week by week.


Pray for the World, a Week at a Time

The weekly prayer cycle pairs one prayer strategy with one global region, so a year carries your family right around the world.
