This is an idea which works well for children’s church lessons and for Sunday school classes. It goes along with the previous concept of a buddy system.
Children’s Church Lessons Series: Give Students a Prayer Partner
Children enjoy the companionship and acceptance of one of their peers.
As with the buddy system, prayer partners are Sunday school students accountable to each other. This works best with older students who understand the idea of prayer and its importance in daily life. Ask your students to pair up and explain to them the purpose of a prayer partner. The partner should ask the other about their prayer habits during the week, and ask for prayers for themselves or friends or family who may be having a hard time. Prayer partners make everyone feel involved because your students are counting on each other as much as they are being counted on.
Prayer partners helps develop lasting relationships between students and encourages their participation and attendance in your children’s church and Sunday school class each week.
