Contemplative Prayer Stations

This contemplative prayer station uses photography/visual art to stimulate thought, emotion and prayer. Particularly in reference to scripture.

Directions for Leadership:

Set up a table with chairs. On the table place a nice cloth, candles, photographs with the scriptural reference attached to it somehow, bibles (for people to look up the scriptures and the directions below.

The way we did this station is by giving various people in the faith community/congregation specific scriptures, ones that provoke visual images such as the psalms, a few weeks in advanced and used those. Or we would give all the people the same scripture and then sit back and be amazed at the different results! Something else to consider; when done with the photos (especially if you do the photograph series of stations) hold a silent auction over the next couple weeks and use the money raised for something Missional!

Directions:

On the table are various photo interpretations of scriptures. Find one that intrigues, if you like you may look up the scripture it is based on. Take time to sit and listen to what God wants to say to you through either the photograph or the passage of Scripture. Be attentive to God’s still small voice.
