24/7 Prayer Rooms

 

The idea is very simple… you get use of a classroom, or part of a hall or some other public space in the school, and you set it up with a series of prayer stations, zones with different themes relating to prayer, e.g. ‘be sorry’, ‘be yourself’, ‘be thankful’, ‘be still’, ‘forgiveness’, ‘messages from God’, etc. You recruit (and train) a great little team from a local church, a group of churches, or from a local Christian schoolswork organisation. And then you either have a timetabled week of classes coming for their lesson- time in the prayer space, or you open it during break and lunchtimes. It can work either way.Prayer spaces get called all kinds of things – sacred spaces, reflective rooms, soul spaces – but their purpose is mostly the same; to welcome children and young people (and teachers!) into space where they can explore prayer in simple, honest, creative ways. This seminar will guide you through the concept and delivery of Prayer Spaces in Schools and how you can begin to use this as a tool for Youth Ministry.
