A good prayer time yesterday evening. There is something to be said for being quietly and silently reflective in a building built to praise God.
In the end there were six prayer stations, each intended to encourage a different sort of prayer - thanksgiving, supplication, blessing.
Most people participated: the one I thought wouldn't didn't. And I think my rainy trip to the beach was appreciated.

| Each pebble in the basket represents an individual prayed for. |
 |
| Write or draw your own prayer. |
 |
| Leave your burden in the bag. The most popular table. |
 |
| Thank Jesus. (Bread under the napkin. Grape juice in the plastic cups. Hand sanitiser on the table. Post-Covid days.) |
 |
| A three-ply strand is stronger than one. God, me, and others together. |
 |
| A side aisle. |
At the end we took the bag of burdens and laid them at the foot of the cross on the altar. All very symbolic and un Zac's like, but moving.

I love that you had something for every learning style! It sounds like a powerful night.
For where two or three gather in my name, there am I with them. Matthew 18:20
God bless.
How good to take the bag of burdens and lay them at the feet of God. That looks like a peaceful and blessing time together.
Very clever and inventive!
Just happened to find this while looking up a prayer poem. Wonderful idea. The bird table cloth is so neat!
