How to Pray for a Missionary Bookmark

Here is a fun idea to help kids remember to pray for missionaries around the world, make a "How to Pray for a Missionary" bookmark. I'll be using construction paper, markers, glue and pictures of the missionaries that our church supports.

On one side write the following Bible verse

Ephesians 6:19
Pray also for me, that whenever I open my mouth, words may be given me so that I will fearlessly make known the mystery of the gospel

On the other side have the children write, How to Pray for a Missionary, and glue a picture of a missionary they want to pray for or draw a globe or something like that and then include the following prayer focus (as previously discussed in this post.)

  • For words
  • For fearlessness
  • For success

These bookmarks can be laminated. You can do some of the work ahead of time for littles. Or you can tweek this idea any way you need to to make it work for you and your family or classroom.


Have a wonderful day!
