Children & Families Ministry leaders, both staff and volunteer, are invited to attend a quarterly gathering to exchange ideas, brainstorm for the future, and to encourage one another as we bring God’s word to the church’s youngest members and the people who love them.

At the September meeting we’ll look at different models for Sunday programming (one classroom? two classrooms? one-room school-house?) and plan for the visit of Gertrud Mueller Nelson, author of the classic To Dance with God: Family Ritual and Community Celebration, at Saint Mark’s Cathedral, Seattle.

Lunch will be provided and mileage will be reimbursed, please RSVP to faithformation@ecww.org. All in attendance will receive a copy of Nelson’s Build Your Own Bethlehem instant creche. If you would like to be added to the Children & Families Ministry leadership email list, please email faithformation@ecww.org.
