Together for children and families

Orphan Sunday offers a unique and powerful opportunity for churches around the world to raise awareness, pray, and take action on behalf of orphaned and vulnerable children — not just for one day, but as part of an ongoing movement of hope, healing, and family restoration.

 

This initiative is more than a day on the calendar. It is a call to the global Church to reflect God’s heart for children and families in crisis — and to respond with compassion, prayer, and tangible support. Whether your church is large or small, in a city or a village, Orphan Sunday is a way to engage your community in the Gospel's call to love the fatherless and strengthen families.
