In service art and group creative projects
This page is a collection of ideas geared towards creating art in a worship experience and getting people involved with simple creative prompts. The goal of both “on-stage” creation,” and “small group” creative projects is to help people connect with God in a new way. Often times creative thinkers need another way to see God or expereince his presence in a quiet way of using their hands to make something.
