  • August 18: Doorperson Workshop: “Are you ready?”
    The doorperson is not an “assistant teacher,” but rather holds care “for the whole room” in a role more like elder. This workshop will prepare Friends to support their children’s program in the doorperson role, from greeting to response time.  
  • October 21: Picture Book Pairings: Children’s literature to pair with Godly Play and Faith & Play stories
    There are so many wonderful picture books that align with the messages in Faith & Play and Godly Play stories. We’ll share suggestions for pairings, along with ideas for how picture books can be part of weaving together stories in a children’s program calendar.     
  • November 19: Wonder Wheel Workshop: A collaborative, evaluative space!
    Inspired by the “Wonder Wheel” activity created by Godly Play trainer Joy Studer, we will use this tool to lift up questions and challenges encountered in this work, and then share wisdom around the circle of participants.
