Joyful Beginnings: Doors to Hope Open in Northern Peru

Forgotten. That’s how families from the Piura region in northern Peru felt in a community plagued by drug addiction, witchcraft and unemployment. With limited opportunities, parents often had to leave their children to seek work, resulting in neglect and heartache.

But now, hope has arrived. An announcement over the town’s loudspeaker proclaimed the exciting news: The local church has partnered with Compassion to open a new child development center!

Discover how God is working through the new center to bring hope to a new generation — starting with 6-year-old Khalessi.

Meet 6-Year-Old Khalessi

Khalessi staand and smiles

Khalessi’s life changed the day Pastor Maria knocked on her door and invited her to join Compassion’s program. For her grandmother, Crecencia, it was a prayer answered. In their small, crowded home in Piura, they’d struggled to make ends meet — and fear about Khalessi’s health weighed heavily.

“I worry about Khalessi,” Crecencia shares. “She is too thin. I’m sure she has parasites. We could use some help.”

But when the new Compassion center opened, hope arrived — welcoming Khalessi and 150 other children from Piura into the program. Now, with access to medical care, nutritious meals and a faith-filled community, Khalessi’s family sees a future bursting with promise.

“God is in the middle of this,” says Veronica, the center director. “He will give us the strength we need, and he will bless the work we do. The children will be discipled, loved, known and cared for. I know this work will change their lives.”

Pray for the Vibrant Country of Peru

 

Provision

As Compassion Peru expands to reach children in the poorest areas of the country — including Piura — pray God would equip local churches to meet the needs of families in these remote areas.

Praise

Praise God for the opening of the new Compassion center, which brings hope and joy to a struggling community that once felt overlooked. Families know now that God sees them!

Gospel

There is a growing community of evangelical Christians in Peru. Pray for openness to the gospel across diverse communities and for believers to be strengthened in their faith.

Health

While Peru has significantly reduced child mortality, Indigenous and rural communities like Khalessi’s still face high rates due to preventable conditions like malnutrition. Pray more children would receive the medical care they need to thrive.

Protection

Pray for protection over children facing health challenges, poverty and violence. May they be kept safe, receive the care they need and be surrounded by a community of support and love.
