the Schools for we have let the Devils Disciples kill that right.
Don't expect Sunday School or Church to be its only provider.
Prayers
are not limited to Christian believers for it's a well know fact that
non-believers have occasion to pray when in trouble or need divine

help when in trouble, however they forget to thank him thereafter.
Example: We pray for rain during droughts, he sends rain
according to his time, and we go on doing whatever we're doing without
ever saying "Thank you LORD for the rain" Parents and Grandparents the time to teach your children is when they are small. Begin at an early age to tell them its meaning, importance and helping them learn short prayers.

Prayers should become a daily ritual. Some times that provide the best opportunities for teaching your children are:
