Christian Aid Ministries (CAM) has received prayers from around the world, including from children, for its missionaries who were kidnapped in Haiti in October.
Seventeen people, including an eight-month-old baby and four children, were taken hostage by a gang in capital Port-au-Prince while returning from a visit to an orphanage. They had also been supporting school children, distributing Bibles and Christian literature, supplying medicine for clinics, teaching Haitian pastors and providing food for the elderly and vulnerable.
One three-year-old child prayed that ‘the naughty people would become good’. Another five-year-old child prayed that ‘the baby could have milk and the mums and dads and children could have food’ and ‘that there would be an angel sent that could maybe help them’.
