Prayer candles

We have been doing prayer candles!

If you would like to do some prayer candles you might need:

• a lit fire,
• a load of candles
• paper and pens

So what are prayer candles?

well prayer candles are candles (as you might of guessed!)

how do you do this activity?

well its simple! All you have to do is sit quietly and ask god to give you a person to pray for. Then you write it on a piece of paper, scrunch it up, (for this part you will need a lit fire) and then throw it in the fire and watch it burn, so that you can reflect on what they need praying for. 

(for this part you will need a load of candles!)

Then light a candle to show the light of the world (god) cares.

Some things that you need to do prayer candles with

• patience
• peace
• a quiet space

you might want to do prayer candles with some quiet worship.
