Prayer walking helps you
become aware of situations in an area that you may not
be aware of without being closer to the situation. Many
times we drive through parts of our town without taking
notice of what is happening or even the types of
businesses along our route because it is so familiar.
The same can be true of our prayers for other countries.
Something that can create awareness of needs in another
country is a virtual prayer walk. These walks are
actually very easy to put together and you would not
need to leave your home town to prayer walk in China,
Africa, South America, Europe, Australia, Central
America or even the town 30 miles away.
One way you can have a virtual prayer walk is to make
posters using clip art representing architecture in the
place you are focusing on. If you have access to an
overhead projector you can trace the image onto poster
board and color. Another way is to collect photos from
the area and print them off on 8.5 x 11 paper. A final
way would be to insert pictures into a Power Point
presentation.
Just remember that as well as having big faith, kids
have big imaginations. It is not hard for them to place
themselves in another location to pray for it. Last
weekend I was working with a group of 3 to 5 year olds.
We were going to pray for China. The way we got in the
spirit of things and found things to pray for was by
taking a plane ride and boarding a bus. While we were
riding on the bus we watched a short clip about China
and that was the scenery we passed while riding. |
