Ethos To Go

Aim

18/01/21 Activities to try at home and at school.

This weeks idea is floating prayers.

“Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God."
Philippians 4:6

Activity – Firstly think of someone or something you would like to pray for or about. Next cut a shape from
the paper e.g. flower or star shape that you can write people’s names on, heart shape if your prayer is looking
at love or forgiveness or a circle for a prayer of thanks.  You may think of a shape of your own. Write your
prayer or names on your shape then fold the petals, corners or the sides upwards. Place the bottom of
your shape on the water and wait! Watch and reflect on your prayer as the petals or
folded parts of your shape slowly open out - this may take a few moments.  


                        This is symbolic of your prayers opening to God.
