Decoration Ideas
When the kids walk into the faith station, you want them to recognize they are entering a prayerful space. A faith room should feel peaceful, welcoming, and joyful. Set the mood by playing soft instrumental music in the background. Pay attention to the lighting. If possible, turn off bright fluorescent lights during prayer time. Add small lamps or battery candles for warmth. Cover any windows or areas that might be distracting.
Set up a prayer table as the focal point of your faith station and cover it with a white table cloth. Make sure it’s low enough so that the young kids can see what’s on the table. Place a Bible in the center, with a crucifix, rosary, and candles, along with any pictures of Jesus, Mary or the angels and saints.
Find various items that relate to the Mass. (Chalice, bread and grapes, priest vestments, holy water, etc.)
