Children’s Mission Conference Visuals

When it comes to getting your kids to connect at a heart level with children from other cultures, a picture truly is worth a thousand words. Are you hunting for visuals for an upcoming children’s mission festival or conference? I’ve been there. A few years back, I scoured children’s magazines and calendars for colorful, engaging photos of boys and girls from around the world. I also looked for simple maps that would help my students locate where these international children lived. Here are some ready-made visuals that can make your preparation easier and bring your kids face-to-face with a lost world.

Photos

Caleb Resources produced a CD-ROM of 154 children’s photos of children from a diverse range of unreached people groups in many different countries – Indonesia, Kazakhstan, Tunisia, Burkina Faso, and many more! Formatted for use in multi-media presentations, newsletters, and bulletins, photos can print to a maximum of 8” x 10 “.

Posters

Caleb Resources produced a set of six Unreached People Group Posters representing people in the 10/40 Window. Color photos include shots of children and adults. Two posters are 39” x 26 ½ “. Four larger posters are 26 ½ ” x 19 ¼ “.

Wycliffe Bible Translators has a 24″ x 36″ poster of Bibleless peoples. Arranged from A-Z,  illustrations show 26 people groups who still need the Bible in their own language. This is a beautiful companion piece to Wycliffe’s children’s book, From Akebu to Zapotec: A Book of Bibleless Peoples. Order the poster from Wycliffe by calling 1.800.992.5433 x3778.
