Equip Yourself to Take a Stand-Pt. 4

As a follow up to this post introducting Red Card Kids, we're highlighting lessons 5 and 6 in the Red Card workbook!

Lesson 5: Child Laborers

-Missions of children are forced to become laborers at a young age. They are denied the education needed to improve their family's situation.

-Pray for God to protect these children from physical and emotional harm.

-Memorize Psalm 72:12 - "For he (God) will deliver the needy who cry out, the afflicted who have no one to help."

Lesson 6: Children of War

-Adults wage war, but children become its youngest victims. They experience horrors that their tender hearts and minds cannot process.

-Pray for God to restore children who have experienced the painful trauma of war.

-Memorize Psalm 91: 2b, 5 - "He is my refuge and my fortress, my God in whom I trust... You will not fear the terror of night, nor the arrow that flies by day."

To learn more, check out the introduction, lessons 1 & 2, and lessons 3 & 4.

Equip Yourself to Take a Stand!

We are excited to introduce you to Red Card Kids... and we'll be highlighting their program over the next several weeks!

Overview: 

Red Card is an 8-week family class on children at risk. Lessons raise awareness of their situations, provide a biblical view of God’s heart for these children, challenge believers to pray for them, and offer practical steps for involvement. The material is designed to provide eight 75-minute lessons for use in churches.

The unique feature of the curriculum is our target audience… families. We want to encourage and empower children to become advocates for the largest unreached group in the world – their own peers. Lessons will allow parents and children (4th grade and up) to learn, process, pray, and take practical steps together.

Testimony from the Donels family, who were impacted by the Red Card class and recently brought home two children from Ethiopia -

The Red Card class opened our eyes to the devestating needs of children around the world. Each week had such an impact on our family because of the hands-on activities.

How will YOU respond? CHECK BACK SOON... we'll be sharing about each lesson over the next 6 weeks!
