Children’s picture books can be rich in meaning and spiritual wisdom. Those qualities, when coupled with captivating illustrations, makes them a perfect offering for your next intergenerational or Sunday classroom gathering.
This workshop will offer guidance for selecting the best from the wide variety of children’s picture books and then pairing those books with wondering questions, scripture, and creative responses.
Wednesday Workshops are an offering of Virginia Theological Seminary through Forma: The Episcopal Church’s Formation ministry.
The presenter, Valerie Reinke, serves as Canon Missioner for Faith Formation for the Diocese of Olympia, the Episcopal Church in Western Washington. She is the author of a free, on-line curriculum called “Sunday Storytellers,” (sundaystorytellers.org) that uses children’s books as a jumping off point for exploring personal values and scripture.
