Dear PAOC family,

Research shows us that the window of opportunity when children are the most receptive to receive Christ is between the ages of 4 to 14 years old, and those who receive Christ at this early stage of life are most likely to continue a lifelong commitment in the Christian faith. (George Barna; Transforming Children Into Spiritual Champions: Why Children Should Be Your Church’s #1 Priority: Regal, November 21, 2003).

This is why the PAOC commits the month of April to pray for children through our 4-14 Initiative. Every day in April we will make posts on our social media to help the family of God share the love of Jesus with children, including a weekly prayer focus on this window of opportunity to reach kids for Christ and give hope to the next generation.

We invite you to come along with us on this important prayer journey during the month of April.
