This week as we continue our Prayers for Ukraine I thought we might pray the map of Ukraine while we doodle and sketch on it. Ukraine is about the size of Alaska. It’s a big place; about 600,000 square miles. Some of you are not into or have time to make daily cards.
Here are some ways you can pray the map of Ukraine
- Divide the map into 6 vertical lines evenly spaced and then pray for one section every day this week.
- Or use the grid map in the handout and pray for a section each day. Doodle the section in while you’re praying. You can get the handout by signing up for my newsletter. In the welcome email, there will be a link to the members-only page. Look for project 22-1 for the Praying for Ukraine handout.
- On another piece of paper, outline the country and then look up what resources are grown/farmed/manufactured in that region and draw an icon of that item on the region of the map.
Write each city noted on the map on a separate card, and pray to a different city each day. Here’s a list of the major cities in Ukraine:
