Instructions

Look at the world map.

Do you have any family members, relatives or friends living abroad? Have you heard any news about these countries?

  • Take a battery-powered tea light candle, a sticky note, or even playdough hearts and form them out of playdough. While you place them on the map, say a thought or prayer for a country or someone you know living in another country.
