Hand Meditation

Themes:	confession, lament, prayer
Media Type:	Powerpoint
Bible refs:	Psalm 68:19
Written by:	Sara Hargreaves

You will need:
A computer with powerpoint software
Projector and screen

This is a powerpoint that can be used in a large congregation, but also in small groups or individually. It aids us in giving our burdens to God, and uses actions to help us focus our prayers. The powerpoint could work in the beginning of a service, as a means of 'entering in', but also as a response to a challenge to release our worries to God.

Hi Judith, I'm sorry you can't make it work. I just downloaded it again and played it and it worked, but I'll ask Sam later to doublecheck.

A really good resource which will give instant stress relief to a lot of people. It also reminds us to pray for all those people who don't have access to a resource like this, and those who don't go to a church and especially those who don't know Jesus.
