Treasure Hunt Prayer

Approx 30 minutes

This is a fun way to get people with the same heart and with a particular focus to move into a more intimate group for specific prayer. It is also a great way to educate people on the nature of various least-reached people groups.

 

Resources needed

  • Paper and a pen for each person
  • Prayer needs for each people group

 

Activity

Each group member has a piece of paper and a pen. They take a few minutes to focus on God and either through hearing Him or through minds-eye pictures or expressions, they write down all the words that come to them about a particular people group.

After the allocated time, read out the people group information from the website and as it is shared, the participants mark if any of their descriptions match. Then divide into smaller groups with people who had similar words or descriptions. Use the information and resources to focus your prayers specifically on that people group.
