We will discuss ministering to families for faith formation: challenges,opportunities, insights, and innovations. Clergy, lay leaders and workers, seminary students, parents and elders, social service providers and anyone interested in the moral and spiritual development of children are welcome.
We invite you (and a friend or two you bring along) to attend our next Children's Spirituality Breakfast. We'll eat, talk, pray, talk, worship, talk, and talk! Our facilitator for the morning will be Dr. Solomon Armstead: artist, YouTube content creator, and community leader. Dr. Armstead will be bringing some of his art, and helping us create some of our own! We will dig deeper into family faith formation and how process art can weave together individual stories into a Family Faith Story.Come and be part of a growing movement of peers supporting peers!
