New Life Children’s Center Spiritual Care Program creates faith opportunities to experience God in different ways as a means of healing for girls experiencing trauma due to abuse and neglect. This mission grant will be used to pay ministry expenses, to purchase Bibles, Bible studies, as well as gardening and art therapy materials.

Gracious and living God, the God of all hope and healing, we thank You for an opportunity to love Your children in need. We ask You to work through the New Life Children’s Spiritual Care Program to show Your children You see them, know what they are going through, and are right beside them. Graciously provide healing of all victims of abuse in their body, soul, and mind. Lord, we pray You would remove all damaging effects of abuse from them, fill them with Your love, and deliver them from their fears. In Jesus’ glorious name we pray. Amen.
