Our partners in a restricted country are witnessing God’s blessing on the work of Sunday Schools in areas of intense persecution. Children are being introduced to the Gospel through colouring books, activities, and songs. Until now, many of these children may have attended church with their parents, but there was no structured teaching designed for them.

In one church, five new children began attending. They came from an unbelieving family and initially joined only for the fun and activities. But after returning home, they eagerly shared what they had learned with their parents, who encouraged them to keep going back each week. Over time, these five children came to faith and accepted Jesus as their Saviour.

In another region, storytelling is being used to spark discussion and invite questions about Jesus. Among one people group, 90 Bible stories have been translated into their heart language and are now being shared in different formats. This is the very first time this community has ever heard the Gospel in their own dialect.

Please pray for much fruit from these efforts, no matter the form the message takes. Pray also that children will remain excited about what they are learning, boldly sharing their new faith with their families and friends.
