Bible Verse:

"Is anyone among you sick? Let them call the elders of the church to pray over them and anoint them with oil in the name of the Lord. And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise them up." – James 5:14-15 (NIV)

This craft is inspired by the biblical teaching in James 5 and is meant to be a tangible reminder of the power of prayer and the healing properties of essential oils.
