Splatter Art Prayers



This is fun way of praying and symbolically giving prayers to God. Plus it produces a piece of artwork as a byproduct! 

You will need: a roasting tin or large tray, elastic bands, paint, water, paintbrushes, paper



Stretch the elastic bands around the width of the roasting tin (5 or 6 elastic bands is a good number) and spread them out evenly. Put a piece of paper into the base of the tin. Water down some paint and use a brush to dab some on to one of the elastic bands. 

Pray: 
  • Think about the things you want to say to God. It might be something you want to ask for, something you want to say thank you for or something you want to say sorry for.  Tell God about them out loud or in your head.
  • For each prayer, flick the elastic band with your fingers and the paint will fly off and splatter on the paper.  Use the flicking as a symbol of giving your prayers to God.

Repeat with different colours for different prayers on the other elastic bands.
