About
Dr. Elizabeth Kotlowski is best known for her desire to see children experience a life-changing encounter with God. Her recent book, Let the Children, was motivated by an encounter with the love of her Heavenly Father while alone in her living room in 2002. This birthed in Elizabeth a passion for God’s presence, and that his children should experience him too.
Elizabeth’s vision is to see prayer put back into the Australian primary public schools. Inspired by her association with the Australian Children’s Prayer Network (which she writes about in her book), Elizabeth is helping to raise up an army of praying children. This is part of a “children in prayer” global prayer movement to prepare the way for the coming of the Lord.
