We teach that it is so important to pray for those living in the 10/40
Window (the least reached area of the world). And now, more than ever it
is so important for you to pray for kids in the 10/40 Window who need to
experience the love of Jesus. You may not be able to rush to lend a hand
in person, but you can send prayers on their behalf up to heaven and you
can give things to help (money, items from home, etc).
Here are pictures from the region. Ask yourself, "If I were there right
now, how would I show the love of Jesus?" or "How can I pray
specifically for their needs from home?"

Keeping children alive
through clean water, clean surroundings, food, and medicine.
Caring for children who
have been separated from their parents and family by getting them
back to their relatives or the community they came from.
Protect children from
being mistreated, kidnapped, stolen, or sold as slaves illegally.
Get kids back into
school as soon as possible so they don't lose time and can return to
a dependable routine.
CAN GOD ANSWER YOUR
PRAYERS FOR KIDS IN THE 10/40 WINDOW? ABSOLUTELY!

to teach kids to pray by a visiting AIMer, and is still teaching kids to
pray. Here are a few recent pictures of Sister Julia and her prayer
