FAITH FIVE:
Nightly at camp, our counselors do Faith Five with our campers (www.faith5.org). Faith Acts in the Home is a simple, easy-to-implement faith practice, perfect for incorporating into your bedtime routine for five to fifteen minutes a night. When done over time, the FAITH5TM carries the power to enrich communication, deepen understanding, aid sleep, and promote mental, physical, and spiritual health. Gather together on a bed, on the floor, or at a table. You may wish to light a candle to begin. The five steps are:
- SHARE your highs (roses) and lows (thorns). You could even add “buds” to this and have them tell of an act of kindness they witnessed or initiated. Roses need not be grand, buds need not be earth shattering, and thorns need not be scandalous!
- READ a Bible verse or story
- TALK about how the Bible reading might relate to your highs and lows
- PRAY for one another’s highs (joys) and lows (concerns). You could close with the Lord’s Prayer.
- BLESS one another
