"...be sober, and hope to the end..."
1 Peter 1: 13

When working with special needs orphans, it is easy to feel overwhelmed. There are just so many children and so few of us. For every life changed through adoption, thousands of others are left without hope or a future. Too often we give up on them. We give up hope.

But our faith is in a God who is not limited by odds, and we should never stop hoping in Him.

This branch of our ministry asks you to pray for the forgotten ones, for the children without hope. To this end, we have created a prayer card for each child in our program. Each card includes a child's name and picture, as well as details about the child and his or her area of need. There is also a magnet on the back so that you can affix it to your refrigerator or other magnetic surface. We invite you to take one of these prayer cards and then commit to praying for that child as often as possible. It is our desire that, in this way, we might cover every child on our Web site with prayer—and thus hold out hope to those who need it most.

You can pick up a Hope Eternal Prayer Card at most of our events. For more information on upcoming events for The Shepherd's Crook, go to the Events page.

Or, if you would like a prayer card for a specific child on our site, you can e-mail us and request one. Be sure to include the child's name and your complete mailing address, and we will mail his or her card to you.
