Purpose: To encourage worshipers to admit the worries they they have, and encourage them to replace those worries with images of the hope we have.

Materials Needed:

• 8 1/2 x 11 paper, marked to have five sections.
• Pencils
• A print-out of Phil 4:6 - 7
• Symbols:
• Blunted Nails (redemption)
• Dove (Holy Spirit)
  
• Peace Symbol (peace)
• Butterfly (transformation)
• Tree (new life)
• 10 Baskets
• Lables for what each of the symbols mean.
  

Set Up:

• Set up the paper and pencils at one end of the table.
• Near the paper, post print-out of Phil 4:6-7 so it can be easily read.
• Take 10 baskets, and set them out in pairs along the length of the table, one towards the front of the table, and one towards the back.
• In each of the front baskets, place one of the symbols.

Practice:

• Read Phil 4:6-7
• Taking a sheet of paper, write down 5 worries that you currently have in your life.
• Walking to each station, worshipers should tear off one of their worries from the sheet of paper and drop it in the rear basket.  Worshipers should then replace the worry with a symbol in the front basket.
• After replacing all their worries with symbols of faith, have worshipers say a prayer of thanksgiving that our lives are redefined in Christ by a new reality.
