2026 Prayer Calendar
12 Months of Prayer – Seeds that GROW Hope
Each month, join us in prayer for the children, staff, and supporters of Grace Refuge Outreach Worldwide (GROW). Together, we plant seeds of hope that God grows into healing, joy, and new beginnings.
November – Children Still Waiting
Many children still live in fear and danger. Pray that God’s rescuing power reaches them
quickly.
“He will deliver the needy who cry out.” – Psalm 72:12
While we rejoice over the children already safe within GROW, there are still many vulnerable children in Thailand and Cambodia who desperately need help. Some are on our waiting list, hoping for an opportunity to come under the protection and care of GROW. Others come to our attention suddenly through emergency situations involving abuse, neglect, abandonment, trafficking risks, domestic violence, or extreme poverty. Every case represents a precious child created in the image of God, carrying both deep needs and incredible potential.
Because space and resources are limited, not every child can immediately enter one of our campuses. Yet even when a child cannot be brought into GROW right away, they are not forgotten. Faa works tirelessly with families and local communities to help improve situations outside the children’s home whenever possible. This may include providing practical assistance, guidance, advocacy, spiritual encouragement, education support, or helping families access resources that can create greater safety and stability for their children. Our hope is always to see families strengthened, children protected, and lives changed before situations become even more dangerous.
Please continue praying for wisdom as GROW evaluates new cases, for provision to meet growing needs, and for discernment in every difficult decision. Pray especially for the children still waiting — that God would protect them, surround them with caring people, and make a way for hope and healing in their lives. Every rescued child reminds us that there are still many more who need someone to see them, fight for them, and remind them they are deeply loved by God.
Christ calls us to be a voice for those who cannot speak for themselves and to care for those who cannot always care for themselves. Proverbs 31:8 reminds us to “Speak up for those who have no voice” (CSB). In Thailand and Cambodia, many children are still waiting for safety, stability, and the opportunity to experience the love of God. While we celebrate the children who have found these blessings, we must not forget those who continue to live in fear, poverty, and uncertainty.
God has not forgotten these precious children, and He calls us not to forget them either. His Word challenges us to look beyond our own lives, to see the suffering of others, and to respond with compassion and love. Galatians 6:9 encourages us not to grow weary in doing good, reminding us that faithfulness matters even when we cannot see the results. We may not be able to rescue every child or meet every need, but we can pray, speak up for the vulnerable, and faithfully respond to the opportunities God places before us.
As we pray for the children who are still waiting, may God give us hearts that are tender toward their suffering, eyes that recognize their needs, and the courage to act when He calls us. May our compassion be more than a feeling, becoming a reflection of Christ’s love through our prayers, our words, and our actions. After all, caring for those who cannot care for themselves is not simply a good thing to do—it is part of living out the faith we profess.
