What is Pray and Paint?
Pray and Paint is a contemplative form of prayer, which
encourages us to connect with God and express our
experiences through creative art.
How does it work?
the format is flexible although follows a pattern;
1. The introduction to materials and format.
(relaxed and informal, usually over coffee with the
opportunity to ask questions).
2. A time of contemplative prayer, using music, silence and
scripture.
(The whole session is covered with prayer to ensure a safe
environment to explore our connection with God).
3. Choose your materials and find a 'comfortable space' to begin
painting.
(Kate will move around offering any required support during
this time).
4. Regroup and share experiences.
(Some may have had very personal experiences, it is up to
each individual whether they choose to share or not).
5. Time to look at others pictures, chat, have another coffee and
generally enjoy the whole experience.
6. Session ends with a time of open prayer.
All artists are free to take their pictures home, have them framed,
and hang them up, they make great conversation starters.
Who is it for?
Anyone can take part regardless of age or gender and no artistic
experience is necessary as full support is available.

Church, or any where quiet and spacious.
