Visual Prayer | Visual Faith Min

Visual prayer is the practice of slowing down to write, color, or doodle during a focused time of prayer. This includes beginning with a printable image or your own hand-drawn "tangle" design. Adding words, coloring, and doodling all help with slowing down, paying attention and dealing with distractions. In this way, visual prayer creates a visual representation of your time with God. There are many forms of visual prayer, including:

Prayer Cards (Note Cards/Postcards and more)
Prayer Spaces
Versicles
Lunch Hugs
Faithmail
Prayer Projects

Prayer Cards

Prayer cards are quarter-page or postcard-sized images to download and print. Some are set up as special event cards (Baptisms, Father’s Day, Mother’s Day, etc.) that you can print, fold, color, and send. We also have hundreds of images you can download to create your own cards.

We also offer a Visual Prayer 101 Video course which can be used to host a group class. Click here >

Prayer Spaces

Prayer Spaces offer areas to note praises, thanksgivings, and requests and then add color during the lifting up of those prayers. These are also a great place to record God's responses. Family members of all ages can engage with this resource to deepen their prayer lives.

Versicles

A Versicle is an invitation - usually a short sentence or verse - typically sung or spoken during worship. The invitation is followed by a response, also sung or spoken. Visual Faith® Ministry uses visual versicles. The image is the invitation to worship. The response is the time spent coloring or writing or doodling. Trim and place your completed versicle in your Bible or give away to bless someone else.
