Ancient Prayers

This contemplative prayer station is just simple meditation using ancient prayers. You can use it for several different topics, posting the prayer for people to contemplate and pray on a wall.

Directions for Leadership:
This is a very flexible station that you can use for many different topics. Find a prayer (Look in the Book of common prayer, or search the web for prayers of Saints, or find what Liturgical Prayers have been used in your particular denomination) and Post it on a wall (large enough for several people to see from 6 feet back). We like to do so in an artistic manner, like the picture below. Post these Directions next to it. Make the area around the prayer comfortable, either with pillows or chairs.

Instructions for next to the “prayer":
Quietly pray the words written and placed on the wall in front of you.
As you pray, make the words your own, thinking about each line in the prayer.
