godly play
Our Godly Play classroom is for children in preschool thru 2nd grade.
The "Doorperson" greets each child and helps them get ready to enter the classroom.
The "Storyteller" tells the Bible story using the Godly Play curriculum, props, and the desert box, and then asks the children wondering questions. The class concludes with worktime and the feast.
Godly Play is a wonderful approach to faith formation thru storytelling.
Sundays, 9:15-10:15 AM, in the Godly Play classroom on the lower level.
