Dear Parents, Sunday School Teachers, Pastoral Care workers and anyone who loves children,
Bangsar Lutheran Church is pleased to host a 1-day workshop organized by Breakthru Enrichment Station on: How To Tell Children Sacred Stories From The Bible Using Godly Play®.
Date: Saturday, 10 November 2012
Time: 9am to 5pm
Venue: The Father’s House, Bangsar Lutheran Church (directions and map here)
What is Godly Play?
Godly Play teaches children the art of using Christian language – parable, sacred story, silence and liturgical action – helping them become more fully aware of the mystery of God’s presence in their lives. The goal of Godly Play is to show how to be open to the Holy Spirit, The Creator, and the Redeemer all at once and all the time in every place.
