About this title

Synopsis

Around the world, Prayer Spaces in Schools enable children and young people, of all faiths and none, to explore life's questions, spirituality and faith in a safe, creative and interactive way.

Since a starting in 2007, well over 6000 prayer spaces have happened in 35 countries. Sticky Note Prayers tells the story so far stories of what God is doing in these extraordinary, ordinary spaces, and shares a vision of how every church can be involved.

'I really enjoyed this, it made me cry with happiness. I am very grateful and I wish I could experience it more often. I would recommend this to other people.' Pupil, 13

'I spent two hours close to tears as the pupil's responses took my breath away. I knew that they would enjoy being somewhere different and doing something unusual. What I wasn't prepared for was the depth with which they would engage with the prayer space.' Head of Religious Education (RE), UK

'We have a whole generation of young Catholics who are religiously aware but spiritually dead. We need something that will bring them to life. I think prayer spaces might be part of the answer.' - Father Paul Chetcuti, Catholic Archdiocese of Malta

'It was soooo cool. I now no longer believe that anything is impossible for God.' - pupil, Germany, 14

'When I go into the prayer space it feels like I don't have to worry about anything.' pupil, India
