Opawa Baptist Church :: a resting place

prayers of encouragement

This has worked well the last two Sunday evenings, and we've used it to bless Shannon as she left for the US, Aliesha as she was baptised, Amy and Logan as youth ministry leaders. Invite people to stand with their backs to the audience. Give out post-it stickers and invite the rest of the congregation to write "thanks God for" prayers on the post-it's, and place them on people's backs.

Its a fun and interactive way to pray. It uses gifts of encouragement. For it's impact, on Amy, read her blog here.
