Kids will learn what it means to help others as they create a Prayer Bear that says “Jesus” in English, Spanish, and French. Plus, everyone can personalize a Survivor's Bible to send along with the Prayer Bear to an orphan in Africa. Join us in one of the world’s largest forces mobilizing kids in serving others around the world.
