Early Childhood - Gathered, Grounded, and Growing: Nurturing the Sea Glass of Early Childhood Faith

Like fragments of sea glass tumbled by the ocean, every young child is unique, resilient and beautifully shaped by God's love. Participants will discover how to honor each child's unique, God-given potential while creating an environment where faith grows naturally through play, literature, and language. Utilizing the Stories of God's Love early childhood religion program, this training provides practical, developmentally appropriate strategies to transform traditional lessons into rich, multi-sensory faith invitations.

Objectives:

1. Participants will examine strategies for a strength-based approach to teaching.

2. Participants will examine strategies that support play-based exploration of faith.
