Contemplative Prayer Stations

This contemplative prayer station focuses on God’s creation through the use of Playdoh!
—————————————————————
Directions for Leadership:

Set up a table and place playdoh and the direction/quotes all around. You might want to consider a wash basin and towel too. You can buy playdoh at the store, or if you are thrifty like me you can make a bazillion pounds of it at home for a fraction of the cost. Here is the recipe:

Mix together:
1 cups flour
1/2 cup salt
2 tsp Cream of Tarter

Pour Above into a skillet on med. - low and add:
1 cups cold water
1 Tbs oil
food coloring (have fun with it!)

Stir until thick then dump onto wax paper. When cool enough knead it till firm. Ta-da!

Directions:

God is in the process of redeeming all of his creation, of bringing all that he has made back into right relationship with himself.

-Create something out of playdoh that symbolizes a part of God’s creation.
-As you mold the clay, pray that God would make right that part of creation.

“This world is Gods creation. Nothing is objective, everything has personal value attached to it. God is the creator and therefore has personal feeling for everything he has made. Every atom, molecule neutron is his artwork. He values every centimeter of space that he has brought into existence. As we wonder through this universe we are not encountering meaningless stuff, we encounter a chipmunk, a river, a child that is God beloved artwork. An art gallery filled with objects of meaning, expressiveness, revelation of Gods heart, intelligence, compassion and whimsy. We are not on public property, nor privately owned property. We are always on God’s property, on loan to us. Everything has some amount of value, not to us, but to God.” - McLarren
