In war torn Aleppo, Syria, a children’s outreach is greatly impacting youngsters through a programme called “Joy for Kids.” Organizers seek to introduce biblical truths in a creative, engaging way through dramatic presentations. The ministry leaders says, “Children want to come to church meetings and hear more about Jesus, even though they are Muslim kids. God is giving us great opportunities to share what we have…”

The parents sit quietly in the background, but they listen and often ask for prayer. In some cases, the spiritual impact is significant, even miraculous. The ministry leader said no more than 15 people would attend their church meetings many years ago. Now he marvels to see over 850 people come, most from a Muslim background.

“A Muslim lady said to us after one of the meetings: ‘Please don’t stop what you are doing after the war is over. We would love to have you over in our houses, if anything is still left.” Children ages 8 to 15 are coming three or four times a week.
