Equipping the Church to make a difference in the lives of children in Latin America

Would your church like to partner with us in helping the street children?

Toybox can help your church make a real difference to the lives of street children in Latin America. You could play a vital role in supporting, giving and prayer.

Your church could:

• Give a Sunday for a street child
• use one of our special seasonal resource packs (see below)
• sponsor a child, experiencing a close link with an individual and a project that makes a vital difference to street children
• become a 'Best Friend' and enjoy a close link with a particular country and network
• grow in faith and understanding of God's heart for the poor
• see the answers to your prayers

You can use this presentation to inform your Church about the work of Toybox: PowerPoint Presentation - includes notes for speakers

Toybox seasonal resources

We want to provide you with the tools you need to equip and inspire your Church to grow, explore and develop a passion for supporting mission. With this in mind, we have developed a number of resource packs for you to use with your Church:

Tell the story of Michael's Christmas

Michael's Christmas is the story of a little boy alone on the streets of Guatemala City. You can share this story with your Church through an easy to download video and leaflets you can give out to get your Church family thinking, praying and responding to the story of street children at Christmas.

Sunday for a street child

Can we challenge your church to change lives this year? To bring about change in the lives of street children in Latin America we would like you to find a few minutes space in one of your services to highlight the work of Toybox in your church - Read more and get involved

Want to book a speaker?

The street children we work with have lives beyond our own experience, and a talk or presentation with the street children as a focus is of great interest to every congregation, young and old. Get in touch with Annie Winterbourn to arrange for a Toybox representative to come to your Church.
Email: annie.winterbourn@toybox.org or call 01908 360057

If we can't, unfortunately, make your date, we also have a range of resources including a DVD, games for children, and activities for different audience types to make it easy for you to run your own presentation.
