Balloon Praise
Written By:

Themes: celebration, praise
Type: Corporate Worship Idea
Bible Refs: Psalm 9:1
Print the PDF containing 24 worship phrases from the psalms, and cut them out. Fold the phrases up and stick in balloons, which you inflate (for best result with helium). Attach the balloons to different places in your worship space (creates a great celebration atmosphere as people arrive). In the midst of a time of sung praise, encourage people to pop their balloons and read out their prayers of praise with a loud voice. [Don’t do this activity if it’s likely that you will have babies / small children present who might get scared – their parents won’t thank you!]

One suggestion -- if possible, don't use latex balloons. May people (especially children) are developing dangerous allergies that can be set off by even being in the same room. Lots of balloons are available that aren't made of latex so have fun!

BTW this is a great activity of older folks who have a hard time expressing themselves. The written notes give them a bit more courage.

We are holding a dedication service for our new worship centre in a months time and are planning to use this idea based on verses celebrate God building His church through his people (us).
