  You need : Green, Red,Black, White and Yellow balloon bunches or streamers or flags.
  Call forward any of the congregation or children’s group who are wearing a green top (t-shirt, jumper, sweater…). Give them the green props and ask them to stand in a group on the far left side of your stage or up-front area.

  GREEN —-         RED —-   BLACK —           WHITE —              YELLOW
  Finally invite all those remaining in the congregation wearing other colours to add “for everyone” to finish the phrase. Those holding the balloons can form a rolling Mexican wave of colour as they circle the balloons in front of them as they say their phrase.
