Every day a child is tortured, raped, killed, or starves from hunger. There are more than 60 million children living on the streets worldwide.
They all need our prayers.

Another special prayer issue:
Yesterday one German TV station broadcasted about a "monster man" in Germany who went into youth hostels and boy camps and kidnapped boys. He took them out of the sleeping room at night, abused them and eventually killed some. Few could escape, most of them not. Similar things occured for the past 17 years(!), in more than 40 cases. Maybe it is one and the same person who has done this, known as "mask man". He could not be captured up to now. I feel so sad for the poor boys. I am worrying about my next camp with boys...
