Portals Projects - Praise God!

Updated: Oct 2, 2023

Welcome to Portals Projects! Each week we share projects that foster community building, creative thinking, problem-solving and character development. Invite your student(s) to pick a project that interests them to work on for a day or a week. Encourage them to share their plans, products or performances with the Portals community so we can all celebrate and grow together.


Week 4 - Praise and Worship

Hebrews 13:15 Through him then let us continually offer up a sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of lips that acknowledge his name.




What is Worship? (Slides)

Attend a worship event or listen to a worship playlist. What is true worship? What elements of true worship can you identify? How do you feel afterward- toward God, yourself and the situations in your life? Share your experience either in writing (blog), as a video (vlog) or as a picture (word cloud).


Way to Worship

Design and host your own worship event for your community.

  1. Pray and select a theme/focus

  2. Pick the type of worship

  3. Plan the event

  4. Create invites for the event

  5. Share your plan

Instant Instrument

Challenge: Using only the recyclable materials available to you at the moment, make an instrument to accompany you as you sing or compose a worship song.


Materials: Recyclable materials - cans, bottles, cardboard, paper, etc.


Time: 7 minutes to make and pick or compose a worship song. 1 minute minimum for performance.


Worship for Everyone

My family is having a family reunion and we want to have a time of worship together, but everyone likes different styles - Gospel, hymns, contemporary. What are 5 songs we could play?


Solution Criteria

  • Only instruments available are acoustic guitar and piano

  • Purpose is to give Thanksgiving to God for His faithfulness

  • Common enough that most will know the words without the words

What is that?

Imagine you are an explorer and you have discovered a new land. As you walk about you hear a strange sound and upon investigation you see a creature you’ve never seen before. Make a 3D or 2D representation of this creature along with a description of what it does and what it sounds like. It can be as realistic or fantastical as you want.
