ORPHAN SUNDAY
"GOD SETS THE LONELY IN FAMILIES."
Orphan Sunday is a day where people across the globe come together with a shared vision - to stand up for orphaned and vulnerable children. Every year since 2004, the Church has celebrated God’s heart for orphaned and vulnerable children on the second Sunday in November.
Millions of children around the world are growing up without the love of a family. Many of those kids are living in institutional orphanages, and millions more are living on the streets, trafficked, or forced into combat.
These children are invisible to many. But while they might be overlooked by the world, we at The Hope Effect are confident God values each and every child and knows them by name. On Orphan Sunday, join us in standing we stand for orphaned and vulnerable children around the world.
If your church would like to participate, read on to learn how to can get involved!
