When I run training sessions, I often refer people to this blog to get the slides I used – these are for the “Getting Started in Children’s Ministry” training held on 15th March 2017 at St Andrew’s in Biggleswade. Click on the link at the bottom to download.
Topics include:
Opportunities for mission and ministry
Creating a culture of welcome
A video clip from Rev on how NOT to manage change
Answers from lots of clergy and children’s workers on “what do you do when people complain about children making noise in the service?”
Baptism/Christenings
A resource list
Children’s corners (Pray and Play areas)
I’ve had the opportunity a few times recently to talk about children’s spiritual development in a more academic way.
