We had a baptism for a three year old who liked the film Wizard of Oz. For the prayers of intercession, the congregation were invited to come forward and place a picture onto a yellow brick road. The pictures were of Dorothy to pray for people who want to be able to go home, the lion for people who need courage, the tin man for people who need more love, the scarecrow for people facing difficult decisions and need wisdom and Toto for our friends. They didn’t need to write anything or say anything, just place the picture down. The music in the background was Somewhere Over the Rainbow sung by Judy Garland.
