Worship Unplugged # 34 Wading Pool

Have ben wanting to try this for ages....
At our Summer Camp we used [albeit Donald Duck themed] a blow up wading pool filled with water to symbolise recconnecting with God via the sensation of being washed clean or having cleansing water poured out of a jug, over your arm, running through the fingers, crossing yourself or whatever made sense without mess.

It was not a guilt response but a symbol of God's love that "washes us clean" in good relationship.

The soundtrack for this brief time was "Wash Me Clean" by Bernard Fanning from his solo album "Tea & Sympathy." Brilliant !!

You could use this to: clean dirty stones, trace a prayer by letters with your finger on the surface of the water, float flowers or paper notes on the surface... or even as happened with our youngest daughter Ellie... use the water for christening etc!!
