Prayer Spaces at Home and A Prayer for God’s Creation

On the 10th of November, World Science Day for Peace and Development is celebrated. Science is an essential part of our everyday lives because it helps us be in touch with the world around us that is constantly evolving. It allows us recognise the lives of all the living things like human beings, animals, plants, and trees, as well as the creation, stars, the sun and moon, and the water. All these living things help us observe God’s love, peace, and presence.

  • Pour the water into the cups, and put some salt in one of them. The salt represents peace and God’s protection, and the water is us. Thus, while you put salt into the cup, remember that God loves us and continuously binds us with him. 
  • The food colouring represents the bad things we come across around us. Pour some food colouring into the other cup. Place the cups on the tray, and place the carton on the surface of the food colouring cup.
  • Turn around the cup of the food colouring
  • Place the carton on the cup where there is the salt.
  • The water mixed with the food colouring didn’t pass through the cup filled with water and salt and remained white! 

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.
