November is National Adoption Month. I obviously believe in adoption. But each year only  250,000 of the world’s orphans are adopted. That’s less than 1%.

You may not be called to adoption, but you are called to pray. This month, I’ll share ten ways you can pray for the world’s orphans.

  • There are 69 million children worldwide who suffer from malnutrition (World Bank).
  • In 2017, 75 percent of all wasted children live in less developed regions (WHO).
  • Nearly half of all deaths in children under 5 are attributable to undernutrition. This translates into the unnecessary loss of about 3 million young lives a year (UNICEF).
  • 66 million primary school-age children attend classes hungry across the developing world, with 23 million in Africa alone (WHO).

Tribune Quintus Valerius is forced to leave the army after a devastating injury. In Philippi, he is manipulated into becoming the prison keeper.

When the apostle Paul shows up in Philippi, everything changes–andnot for the better.
