Godly Playheld during our 10:30am worship service

Godly Play is a Montessori based Sunday School program that teaches children the art of using religious language – parable, sacred story, silence and liturgical action – helping them become more fully aware of the mystery and reality of God’s presence in their lives. Using careful telling of scripture stories, engaging story figures, and a variety of creative activities, Godly Play encourages children to seek and find their own answers to their faith questions.

Godly Play offers a contemporary and child-accessible version of the ancient spiritual practice of lectio divina: holy reading, wondering and responding to the Bible’s sacred stories. Instead of analyzing God’s word, the children meditate in an artistic and kinesthetic way. Godly Play helps children know God and the Bible instead of simply knowing about God or about the Bible. To learn more about this fascinating program, please visit the international Godly Play website at Godly Play Foundation. Godly Play is offered for ages 3 – 12. Please bring your children on Sunday morning, and feel free to observe a class.
