Children Worship & Wonder 

Children Worship & Wonder offers an exciting way to approach faith formation with children. The approach recognizes children as spiritual beings who already have a relationship with God.

Through Children Worship & Wonder, children learn about God as they experience God. They hear Bible stories in a way that allows them to enter into the stories and form responses out of their own life experiences. Children Worship & Wonder can be used with children beginning at age 3.  A wide age range can be grouped together in one class. It is a Montessori influenced program that often works wonders with children who have attention deficit problems.

Training takes approximately 15 hours and costs $120 per person. The cost after the eary bird deadline is $150. If you wish to receive additional information on Children Worship & Wonder or if you have interest in sponsoring a Children Worship & Wonder Training event for your region, area, district or church, contact Kaye Edwards or Wilma Shuffitt.
