Summer Prayer Placemat

Denise Gorss Prayer/Guided Reflections

Summer Prayer Placemat

Before heading out to enjoy fun activities in nature this summer, pause to thank God for the gifts of the season. Our summer prayer placemat invites children to compose a prayer of thanks in a fun fill-in style. Pull out the big box of crayons, because even adults will want to spend time coloring the cute images and completing the activities on the sheet. Encourage families to pray the prayer together before enjoying breakfast, lunch, dinner, or even a tasty ice-cream treat.

Print the placemat on 11” x 17” paper for best results.
