Kingston United Methodist Church will host a training in Children and Worship on January 31-February 1, that is open to all interested parents, Sunday School leaders, Christian educators, and children’s ministers. We are fortunate that Kaye Edwards will be the trainer.
The cost for the two-day workshop is $120 per person. If enrollment permits, seminarians and college students will receive steeply discounted rates.
Schedule: January 31, 5:30-9:00pm and February 1st, 9:00am-4:00pm
To register, please contact Kate Hillis at: [email protected]

Children and Worship is an approach to sharing faith with children that allows children to encounter God, while preparing them to participate in the worshipping life of the church. It uses a multi-sensory approach to storytelling and encourages children to respond to God’s word in creative ways.
Materials used in the workshop are made to the specifications of the late Drs. Sonja Stewart and Jerome W. Berryman. Children and Worship is not associated with Godly Play, but both programs utilize a Montessori-based approach to sharing faith with children.
