Here's another creative prayer suggestion taken from the email sent by the World
network of Prayer. I hope it proves to be a blessing.

Creative Suggestion
Christmas - this idea was intended to be used for Daughters of Zion - but
could be implemented into any prayer group.  Give each person in your prayer
group a Christmas ball ornament and have them write the name of their
children on it.  Retrieve the ornaments and redistribute them - so that each
person has someone else's.  You take the ornament home and pray for the
names on the ornament all month.   When the ornaments are redistributed a
card is handed out with them with the following instructions on how to pray
for each person:

C - for them to become or remain Christians
H - to have a Heart after God
R - pray against Rebellion
I - for them to take Instruction from their parents and their pastor
S - pray against Sickness -pray they will be healthy and well
T - that they would use their Talents for God and His kingdom not for self
promotion
M - for their Marriages or for their future mates
A - for an Angelic covering
S - that they will be Satisfied and content not materialistic through the
Christmas season
