Tears of Gold



Tears of Gold is a powerful prayer resource for individuals and groups.

The pack consists of self-portraits of five amazing women, painted as part of a trauma-care workshops supported by Open Doors. Each of these women has been through unimaginable trauma. But, with God’s help, they have learnt that, through God’s love, tears of pain can become tears of gold.
 
On the reverse of each prints you will find background information about the person in the portrait, as well as specific items for prayer and activities for
personal reflection.

These cards can be used in two ways:

  • for individual prayer and reflection, as part of your personal devotionals or even during a personal retreat.
  • as ‘prayer stations’ for a small group. Display the cards around your venue and invite particpants to use the prayer activities to enageg with each card in turn. Participants also get to take away a small ‘Portraits and Prayer’ leaflet as a reminder.

Tears of Gold is a powerful, creative way to not only pray for the women and girls of the persecuted church, but also to help us all to see ourselves as God sees us – as His precious children, loved, cherished and of inestimable worth.

  • Set of 5 portraits and prayer cards, with portraits on the front and prayer activities on the reverse
