A method of telling Bible Stories and stories of church traditions with 3-dimensional materials. This imaginative approach enables children to encounter and experience God and give expression to that encounter.
Told in the powerful oral tradition, stories open-ended allowing children opportunity to "wonder," to make the story their own, to connect the story with personal experience.
A way to encourage children to move into larger dimensions of belief and faith through "wondering questions" and open-ended response time. Children may express their personal experience via various art media and enrichment materials, or may learn to retell the story using the story materials.
A way of helping children to worship with our congregation as they learn the language of faith. A deeper understanding of the stories, symbols, and rituals of our faith leads to more meaningful and appropriate participation in worship.
