Great Family Project:
The Christmas Prayer Chain
by Brian Dollar
What you need:
- 25 strips of construction paper
(approx. 2 inches wide and 6 inches long) - A marker
- Glue
What to do:
- Gather your kids together and take turns naming someone the family will pray for (friends, family, pastors, teachers, and others).
- Write one name on each strip of construction paper, then glue each strip together end-to-end, linking each to make a long paper chain
(see photo). - Place the Christmas prayer chain on the mantle or on the Christmas tree.
- As a family, remove one link of the chain daily and pray together for the person listed on that link.
This is a wonderful way to count down the days until Christmas and have meaningful family prayer time.
May you and your family enjoy your Christmas holiday!
