Resources for Creative prayer

I love finding new resources via pinterest! Lots of creative ideas that I have collected will be found on my link. If you click on the picture, it will take you another page, then click again to take you to the original site and it will explain the idea. You will need to set up your own account if you want to ‘pin’ or ‘follow’ my boards. It’s great, try it!

This is an interesting website. Packs of 52 ideas for prayer and other activities as a handy playing card sized resource. Can be used either at home or as part of a children’s group.
