Oil Spill Prayer – Idea

The oil spill off the Gulf Coast of the United States has had an affect on many people. It is affecting jobs, the price of oil, wildlife, the ocean, and even land. Recently local kids prayer group prayed for the oil spill. Their leader put together a PowerPoint presentation with pictures and some brief points about what has happened with the oil spill. To show the affects that oil has she used a bowl that had water in it and poured oil on the top. Then she placed a rubber duck in the water to show how the oil attaches to everything around it. The group then shared ideas of what they could prayer for and spent time in prayer. For this lesson all you need is updated information about the oil spill, a bowl, water, and oil.
