Lots of prayer ribbons have been tied on to the string coming from the cross. It's not obvious whether people were using the different colours for different meanings.
The Paris attacks happened during this period and, following a gathering of people of different faiths and none, a French flag was positioned at the side of the prayer space. The red and blue ribbons ran out and I would have liked to have added white ribbons to symbolise peace but didn't manage to find time to do that.
Overall, there has been a good engagement with this prayer station, starting with Messy Church and providing a focus for those praying for Paris and the wider world.
