Grandparenting with a Purpose: Effective Ways to Pray for your Grandchildren
If you are a grandparent, I am sure you are concerned about the moral and spiritual climate in which your grandchildren are living in today. The media-driven culture is desensitizing our grandchildren, and many of our grandchildren’s role models are disappointing them.
We at Christian Grandparenting Network have a heavy heart for the next generation. Therefore, we are calling you to join us in intentional prayer on the National Grandparents Day, making it a Day of Prayer.
Can we count on you to help us with this unique event by volunteering to organize a group to join in prayer? We will help you by providing resources and step-by-step guidelines to create an event to encourage grandparents to deliberately join in prayer.
To find out more about becoming a volunteer or be a part of Grandparents’ Day of Prayer, please follow the steps below.

The media is definitely a tool Satan uses because the media is the world the very thing Jesus told us we must not love. All our grandchildren must be in the kingdom of God to be protected from the filth of the media.
The so-called role models are themselves lost in sin
Yes I’m earnestly and fervently praying daily for the grandchildren represented on this network.
What they teach in schools the daily filth on television and the sad condition of the
children who hear nothing of God and his love.
But in fact they hear the opposite that there is no God
and if there is he is either blind deaf and dumb or he simply doesn’t care.
Paul told the Philippian jailer to believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and he would be saved
and his house.
We must believe and we must pray for the children the grandchildren.
As one preacher put it we must defy the decline sociologists say is the usual outcome
of a movement after the third generation.
My grandchildren are the third generation of believers my great-grandchildren the fourth
and we still believe in Jesus.
We must defy the decline and as the preacher put it we must revolt against what is not of God.
We go forward in Jesus Name.
Barbara,
Thank you for your insightful comment. Your comments are so true. I am a product of my great-grandfather’s prayers and my goal and passion is for my grandchildren and great-grandchildren will continue to pass on God’s love to future generations. My God continue to bless you as you grandparent with a purpose.
