Prayer Spaces at Home and a Prayer to refugees

Hi Kids,

A refugee is someone who has been forced to leave his house and cannot return to his country safely because of danger. Usually, refugees run away from their countries due to wars, hunger and lack of security. During 2022 millions of refugees from countries all over the world such as Yemen, Urkraine, Afghanistan, Nigeria and Syria became refugees. Imagine you had to leave home forever; what would you take with you?

This prayer space is called Refugee Backpack.

  • Take a glance at some of the things refugees usually take with them when they leave their country.  
  • Choose three of these things, and on the backpack template write down the things you chose and why.
  • At the back of the same template write a message of hope to a refugee.

How to use this space

God speaks to us in many ways, including through prayer at home. Here you will find useful background and activities to better understand how to pray, helping you to connect with God in your daily life in a meaningful way.
