This is an easy and very visual way to help children to pray for healing, for themselves and others.

You will need: A flattened cardboard box or a board, plasters (fabric plasters are best to write on), felt tip pens.

Having talked about Jesus’ healing miracles, we set up a board that the children could use every week to pray for those who need healing.  We wrote words from Luke 6:19 about Jesus healing the sick at the top of the board and then encouraged children to write on plasters the names of those they knew who were ill.  They then stuck the plasters to the board as a sign of their prayer to God for healing.  This is a very popular prayer station!
