If we were able to worship in person, all children ages 3 and up would attend Godly Play. Godly Play is a Montessori based play which explains bible stories in an age appropriate and fun way using figurines, textures and materials, then an art project.
As this is not possible during the pandemic, we have weekly lessons based on the Arch Book Children's Series. Here is this week's material as well as some from the past few weeks.
We look forward to meeting in person again when it is safe to do so. Blessings of health, happiness, love, and peace to you all.
