Training and Resources

If you have a healthy children’s team full of committed, enthusiastic leaders, Praise God. If you have a small faithful few who toil away week after week, Praise God. Perhaps you currently have no children’s work but people willing to have a go. Praise God.

Whatever the situation regular training and resourcing your children’s workers should be something that the church takes seriously.

Helen Proudfoot can provide 4 to 6 week courses, tailored to suit your needs covering a variety of building blocks and practical skills, to keep leaders encouraged and equipped. There are a number of useful resources she recommends too.

Training opportunities

GODLY PLAY MAKE AND TELL SESSION
@ DERBY CHURCH HOUSE ON Wednesday June 27th 9.30– 12.30

Interest in Godly Play is growing and many of you have been to an introductory session. Some of you are borrowing the sets and using them in your children’s groups.

The Make and Tell session will demonstrate the Creation Godly Play story, you will then make the “kit” painting the pieces yourselves with templates and pictures available to help. All the other necessary items, will be available. You will then practise telling the story with others.

By the end of the morning you will have The Creation Godly Play story to take away and use.

Places will be limited so please book early. If you would like to attend a session like this but would only be able to attend on a Saturday please let me know, if there is enough interest we will arrange one. Cost to cover materials £10.
