Considerations
- Useful for children ages 9-12.
- Some of the information and activities will not be useful in every culture. Recordings on audio cassette or CD could be used.
- Use in a Sunday school or Christian school. The children could learn to pray for the Moroccan believers. They could pray for those who have not heard about the love of Jesus.
- The Bible verse about praying is Hebrews 13:3. The book uses the King James Version (KJV). For translation, an easier version is the Contemporary English Version (CEV).” Remember the Lord's people who are in jail and be concerned for them. Don't forget those who are suffering, but imagine that you are there with them.”
Limitations
- Available in English only. Some activities would not be culturally appropriate for children who do not read or write.
- Not all activities are culturally appropriate.
- In some Muslim countries this book might cause serious trouble if authorities knew about it.
