The Power of Prayer

As children of our Heavenly Father one of our greatest privileges is to communicate with Him in prayer. As you play this game with your family and friends and read the scriptures on the squares, you will learn more about prayer and how you can improve your communication with Heavenly Father.

Directions: Each player will need a marker (a bean or a coin), a piece of paper, and a pencil. Draw six blanks on the paper, one for each letter of the word prayer. The youngest player goes first by rolling a die and moving the number shown. If you land on a letter, write that letter in the correct blank on your paper. If you land on a scripture, read the scripture out loud, and put an X under one of the blanks. Play until each player spells prayer and has an X under each letter.
